Thanks for your respectful answer! Yes I truely belive we should be completely OS 9 browsable. And I also belive we should never stop to resist such modern "integrated" sites, which are mainly producing "commercial overhead". In the meantime there are sites that tell me a 2 1/2 year old Firefix at a recent Linux machine is totally outdated, ... they simply fuckt up the net, but that is another "media academic" debate.
But are you sure you like to recive a bunch of PMs for every embedded video from me?
Of course I can do it, but it may lead to the situation that I am just annoying you, ... ?
About "Cornica"; I wanted to support him when the service was brand new. But I am unsure. To me it seems unfinished. And also the video size remains me more about the times of early Mac OS 8 when we were happy getting a 200 bucks 56k modem instead of our 33k ones.
I am used to watch at least PAL videos with my Macs. And bandwith is no problem anymore these days. So yes, initiatives like Cornica should be supported, and we should contact him and ask for collaboration. But at the moment it seems somehow "not ready" and dead to me.
Regarding the downloader:
http://www.clipconverter.cc seems nice, and the site works well with Classilla. But sadly their .mov and .avi codecs do not work with QuickTime 6. So I will have to keep using
http://downloadyoutubevideo.org and get the .flv videos that work well with FLVPlayer9/Classilla.
