Obviously, music can be streamed thru SL, such as the 80s I'm listening to as I write this. Exploring SL, somewhere I saw little movies/clips, that were playing, either an actual show, or an advertisment by a site.

I was just wondering how this could be done? For example, if I have a show I broadcast through Veoh.com, is there some way I can run it through SL, or would I have to create a notecard, or some such, providing a link that will open up, allowing them to watch?

Feedback, please!

I've made a couple of video tutorials that show how video works in SL and how to convert your own videos for use in-world.

Wow! That looks cool I'm going to work on that, and hope it turns out well! With this, is it also possible to put links to various websites? For example: Show video 1, link to site to buy things from, video 2, link, etc?
