not everyone... they're not suing me, because I don't have any sites, let alone use any video.Originally posted by sexeducation

I think I heard him say something about zip files too... so it's not just streaming, but it sounds more like the file itself. Not sure how that can be, but that's what I got from it. He mentioned something about Winzip being in violation if video was includedSIG TOO BIGComment
