Anyone KNOW why radio stations insist on using flash for audio instead
of normal audio formats like Windows, MP3, etc?


Probably to make it harder to save the content to disk? There are lots of
apps that save complete and streaming MP3 files to disk, but few that do it
for Flash. aTubeCatcher is one that does it for Flash files, but not for
streams that I'm aware of.
