Excuse me for being so down to earth, but I don't believe that, to
deliver content on the Web, a lossless codec is essential. If I'm
right Ogg Theora could have been proposed to state TVs years ago.
Instead Flash pretty much took over Windows Media. We're not much
better off.

P.s.: I'm still wondering what happened to my Flash player recently.
Am I the only one who experienced this problem?
