Hey guys, ive been wonderng about this for a while now. I use Flash streaming on my site which seems the perfect solution for a multi platrform audience. Unlike DRM which is a complete pain in the ass.

So I was thinking if it would be possible to embed some sort of action in the FLV or SWF movie, which could check a URL within the members area for authorisation. Im not Flash expert by any means, but surely something like this must be possible.

By doing this I could offer mt FLV movies as downloads, together with my own flv player and not alienate Mac users like DRM does.

whatcha think?
