--- Comment #2 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> ---
MPEG-DASH style streaming would also be good for the ogv.js player (or a future
webm.js variant) in non-WebM-supporting browsers, as this would enable things
that are difficult when loading a large video file via XMLHTTPRequest:

* true streaming in Safari (currently can only progressive download into an
in-memory buffer)
* quick seeking to any position in the file
* adaptive switching of resolutions based on CPU speed

The smaller file chunks should also be friendlier to our caching
infrastructure, in theory.
