In my opinion Macromedia should not have a Flash 5 Player beta version
available for download. At least not while there are compatibilty problems
with flash 4 movies. You know what the average users does: If new Version
number > old Version number they install it. No matter if it's an early
alpha, beta or a developer release. Then it's up to us to explain the
project managers why the sites are not working anymore. I think there are
MAJOR compatibility problems with Flash 4 Movies and Flash 5 Player. About
half of the sites i built don't work with the beta player...
