here is how it was explained to me

The coolest part about the new wave of flash video is you can present a high quality video inside of a branded player that allows the member to have on his desktop all the movies he wants to download from your site.
He can play it full screen or whatever he wants. The video using Flash 8 (On2 V6) is higher quality and smaller than WM9.
But, even though he doesn't have to login or even visit the website through a browser, the flash player can authenticate him every month to make sure his card has rebilled.
I don't know about you but when I was a surfer If I had the option of watching and storing porn on my computer without having to login I would. It's a great way of covering your tracks.
This can also be done with On2's VP7 codec which is actually better quality than Flash 8 but an extra install is necessary, but I don't think it's as convenient as the new wave of flash.
