ABSTRACT

FLASH VIDEO HAS REVOLUTIONIZED online video. Since its inception, the FLV format has grown exponentially as the favored medium for delivering video content. Google Video, You Tube, AOL, Yahoo! Video and MySpace are just some of the websites that have adopted Flash as their method of video deployment. Not to say other media players such as QuickTime, Windows Media and Real Player are “dead” by any means. But in comparison, it’s as if they stood silently by as Flash boarded the Internet video bus and drove away.
