I dunno, Gary. I thought the article was pretty fair. He mentions the
bitmap issue on http://www.zdnet.com/devhead/stories/articles/0,4413,2495522,00.html

The designer must have the discipline to stay away from the effects if
file size is the ultimate issue. (Or smash things down with the
per-object compression.)

How much bigger are your LiveMotion SWFs than comparable Flash SWFs?
I'd love to see a range of comparisons, vectors to vectors.

Cheers,
Dan
