Unless you have super-exclusive content you want to protect. it's
probably not worth the extra filesize.
The average paysite subscriber would never go to the trouble to
learn the procedure to capture .swf files. If someone was that
ambitious they would already use hacks, cracks, and spoofs so that
joining a paysite wouldn't be necessary.
In my experience the filesize increases with a flash movie the same size and quality as original video input is

flash movie=(.avi, mpeg4, etc.) x6(approx.)
flash movie=(.mov, .wmv)x4(approx.)

On the other hand...buttons (ff,rw,play,etc.) can be easily added
using active scripting, and the playback is much more responsive
than with windows based media players (IMHO).
