I think in the ultra-casual market, Pygame is going to forever lose to Flash. Flash games run straight from the browser with no download. I don't think we can beat that, at least not with a technology like the one proposed by Will McGugan. Do we want to try to undercut Flash? If so, what we need to do is start thinking about how to effectively sandbox Python (widely accepted as impossible?) and get pygame apps to run in the browser (deep magic?). I'm not sure this is a worthy goal for us in any case -- it certainly doesn't excite me personally.
Actually when it comes to money in the PC games market, flash games in the browser don't make nearly as much as downloadable titles. People often make downloadable binaries out of flash though, cause it is a great environment to make professional games.
