Re: What is the future of video on the web?
One of the business models that isn't getting hit hard in porn yet is the "direct download to TV" model, that Blockbuster or Netflix or whoever has been playing with in the mainstream. Not as many people I guess are looking to put the porn on the big screen, but rather prefer (or are forced to) enjoy it in the den or where ever they happen to have their computer.
RealMedia is a pretty solid joke at this point, their install tries to put so much stuff on your system that most people seem to consider it borderline spyware, and the compression / encoding for those files just isn't all that good. I hate to say it, but Windows Media Player since about 9 has pretty much been as good as anyone needs.
Flash movies are also very nice, especially the better quality ones (not the youtube style super crap encoding). Some of the mainstream movie trailers in flash are darn impressive, super quality.
