what we are asking?:
Petition for Brave_New_Films
I am writing to you about the media formats you use on your site. Brave 
New Films currently uses YouTube videos, which are in FLV format, in 
addition to MOV and MP3. FLV is a proprietary format with poor support 
on free (as in freedom) operating systems, such as GNU/Linux. MOV and 
MP3 are both patented formats that can not legally be used by free 
software. As a progressive organization, Brave New Films should use free 
formats that can be played with free software. I recommend you encode 
your videos in Ogg Theora (http://www.theora.org/theorafaq.html) format. 
Audio can be encoded in Ogg Vorbis (http://www.vorbis.com/). Both Ogg 
Theora and Ogg Vorbis are unencumbered formats with excellent support on 
GNU/Linux. There are also players available for Windows. If you are not 
willing to exclusively use free formats, you should offer them as an 
option. The current situation is unacceptable, so I urge you to correct 
it as soon as possible. For more information about free software, see
