New Feature: Video Embedding

[hasteroth]

Embedding... we're all going to hell. Just like <a href="http://www.animemusicvideos.org/forum/v ... ochsack</a>.

And you, siree, are going with us

It was already too late for me.

Count me as a nay-sayer. I just hope i'm wrong, and this won't completely blow up in our faces.

I have to say I'm with Bashar on this one. Important question: Can anybody play these embedded videos, or do you have to be a member of the site in order for it to work? ie., does it ask you to enter a name/password combo?

If not, I have to say I think we're opening a can of worms and putting ourselves on some radar screens we might not want to be on.

Embedding is limited to those that know the embed codes. This is primarily a convenience feature for donators that have a personal webpage or studio site but can't afford to host the videos themselves. I don't see this feature becoming rampant and widespread like youtube or other streaming sites.

Yes, to the former.

Ok. Strike me off the nay-sayer list. Though I'm still not so sure about this.

So, they couldn't be copy-paste lifted off a "view source" 'd HTML page?

They could.

They could.

So, there isn't any protection from them flooding across the internet through places like MySpace, Facebook, LiveJournal, Gaia, 4chan, SA, or any of the other 1001 meem-based social collectives, then?
