Is Flash Video the answer? What was the original question? Flash is definately the answer to viewer reachability. And these days it's easy and free. Just reread Michael Sullivan's posts. I've written an article describing why Flash is great and how anyone can now put Flash video on their website for $0.
The reason I personally like Flash is becuase I believe most viewers want to watch videos. I dont think they want to download videos nearly as much as they want to watch. If they have to download before they can watch then okay they'll download them. The article above details how anyone can deliver progressive Flash downloads-- much better than downloading entire movie before you can watch.
The
video host (mentioned by another person earlier in this thread) that streams via flash and also provides mp4 downloads for ipod owners-- is great solution for total distribution these days in my opinion. But then again if most your web visitors are Mac users you should stick with MOV. Think of who your visitors are and do what's best for them.
