Also if you want to stream BBC radio in browser it still insists on using Flash to do it. My concern is with the way Google tend to do things in Chrome (Aunty Google knows best, please do as I say) I might not even be able to continue to use flash for the very few sites I'd like to, or have to.
e.g. I tried to download an mp3 of a radio show from bbc.co.uk earlier today and "download blocked" with no option to override. I have all the protect me from myself settings firmly off. chrome help says it's Internet Settings. Internet settings says it's fine to download, and I've downloaded dozens of other mp3s flawlessly. mp3 actually downloads if you paste the button url in a new tab rather than click the button. I've had similar issues with other, innocent and harmless, files in the past. Well, since they brought in their cleverness and download "protections".
I forsee similar issues with flash as it goes through its deprecation.
