On2 is definately the standard right now for providing Sufficient flv transcoding needs. Since Dreamhost is obviously tinkering with ideas and giving their customers some basic tools like this.... I would not be surprised if they added On2 as part of a more robust solution and start marketing it accordingly. They have now been dabbling in ways to archive your media forever, sell your media, share your media and now transcode and display your media. Maybe they build a wordpress plugin that gets included with the one-click install process which binds that publishing platform with their own hosted services to make it easy to publish media... to vlog and podcast etc. Feasible. A turn-key solution on top of their existing hosting platform would only take some focus and could become quite popular...
