I've found that flash is much more likely to play on any computer than quicktime is. Assuming the same visual quality, I'd say go with flash as your main video and quicktime as a secondary offering. If the quicktime looks better, then some kind of way to offer a choice to the viewer might be the way to go. If most of your viewers are on windows machines, you might need to offer windows media as a third option. Bill C. http://ems.blip.tv
