Flash player & Streaming

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.

There a number of utilities out there (for the Mac, at least) that can
save any sound the computer makes from whatever source to a file. If it
is audio directed to a sound card, it can be captured in a file.

As I recall, one of the salient "features" of XP (and presumable later
Windows releases) involved internal handling of audio in some
ultra-secure way so that an application that tried to do that would shut
down the playback. I recall as well the problems people were having
trying to play media and the OS was stubbornly refusing, claiming
"violations".

Bill was trying to demonstrate to the copyright industry that they could
securely lock down everything on his platform. iTunes sort of blew that
apart.
