I doubt James Valentine's song is official ABC content, the Coalition and Cory Bernadii (especially) would have a collective stroke.

However the ABC do seem to use social media a lot, which I don't mind as long as their content is not exclusively delivered that way.  I would *strongly* object to having to join Facebook to access it.

I can't play this video either despite having the latest & greatest Firefox & VLC with MPEG4 support, and I think it's time to install Karl's 'webdl' package.  Both Facebook & ABC iView seem to use H.264/MPEG-4 AVC ("advanced video coding"), probably so they can provide more complex content, but SBS use HLS adaptive streaming as discussed in previous thread.  But iPhone support for this stuff seems to take priority.
