We've just (last month) added some historical video clips to our web
site and have had a wonderful patron reaction -- a lot of visits, a
couple of comments, and we also just had a patron come in to request
a copy of one of the full videos because it showed an interview with
her late husband's mother. We chose Windows Media format, which we
support on all our public Internet PCs, and so far have had no
complaints from people being unable to view. (We do provide a
download link for the player.)
