Adobe Media Player: Understanding the structure of the RSS feed

Adobe Media Playerby Craig Syverson
Adobe Media Player is a next-generation desktop media player and management application that provides high-quality video playback of streamed, downloaded, or locally stored FLV content.

Something as minor as switching longtime Flickr users over to Yahoo’s log-in system prompted protests from people who resisted being sucked into the evil Yahoo machine.
