Couldn't you make the same argument for images? I know some sites try to be tricky by disabling right-click, etc., but the same "rule" definitely still applies.<p>Or is it generally believed that images are of less "value" than video?
I think this is why corporations worried about "stealing" will still opt for Flash encrypted delivery vs HTML5-ey "friendly" delivery.<p>Any good player framework will likely account for this, hopefully by allowing all the same DOM-ey calls that one could perform with HTML5-ey video to be performed on flash through some sort of wrapper.<p>I don't <i>think</i> that content companies will just let it happen.
