Technical implementation of this uneasy task is solved really easy –
mostly all players work due to the Java Script performance and of course
one of the new HTML5 tags – “video” tag. Actually it is really
interesting to observe how web standard can compete with web giant that
produces third-party software. HTML5 advocates argue that loading time
is faster than Flash because you don’t need waiting for the video to
buffer. Flash apologists parry that Flash software is now installed on
95% of all computers in the world and it is hard to beat such statistics
even in 5 years.

Anyways we are not going to take any of these sides because we believe
that this is your personal decision. We only want to show you some
options that might be interesting to you. So please welcome our list of
