So with flash becoming less common, is Second Life still going to be supporting Adobe Flash? It seems clear that Flash Player is becoming abit unsafe for our computers. It would seem SL is going to need to swap a way to play Media through SL.

er...I think you meant "Adobe Flash", not flash drives.

EDIT:  Awww, you fixed it!  Now my lovely humorous post just looks stupid.  Story of my life.

Flash isn't the standard way, or possibly even supported, way of playing media in SL for years, if ever. It used to be QuickTime; it was changed to VLC a few years ago.

Time to update the SL TVs! Flash should've been PKed long ago.
