I can answer #3. You can do progressive streaming for FLV from the server. For true streaming, you'll need Flash Media Server.

I'm developing an asp.net web application. The client is keen - quite late in the day I might add - to use Flex for the interface for it's ability to provide flexible and robust components. I want to be able to keep the Data Layer and Business Objects that I've been hacking away at in .net. I've had a little time to evaulate flex and have succesfully accessed, modified and returned data using strongly typed .net objects, however my actionscript knoweldge only dates back to Flash 5 so I've hit the first slopes of the learning curve. I'm basically asking if anyone can give me any guidance on the following: 1. Is it necessary for me to use FDS to send and return data to the flex clients and what can you only do using FDS that can't be achieved using web services? 2. Can you pass strongly typed objects into and out of flex using .net webservices? 3. Does flash allow for file-based video streaming without using a specialised server? 4. Can I use flash remoting to communicate with my .net back-end?
