But seriously, what is the current realistic alternative to Flash for

embedding audio/video content on web pages?

I've been trying to promote SMIL (http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/) which

I've worked quite a bit but I guess very few had even ever heard of it

on this list.

And of course now there's upcoming HTML 5

(http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html and demos:

http://htmlfive.appspot.com/) which is already supported on firefox 3.5

and seems promising (yet if no hosting site will support it it'll

probably prove rather unsuccessful).

Bests,

Lorenzo
