Thanks for the explanation Peter ;)

Is this protocol implemented over http too?

Using only Remoting (or any http-based service), you have to poll the
service for changes. With red5 or FMS/FDS, the server can send changes
when they occur (push, not pull), which means the changes get to the
client faster, and the client isn't making redundant calls to the
server for changes that haven't happened.
