[Ubuntu-be] Platform independent solution to watch "Streaming Service of the Council of the European Union."

[Tom Van Looy]

"The Council of the EU has a streaming service so that we can watch its
meetings ? but the service can only be accessed by Mac or MS Windows
users. This is because they employ WMV format for the videos. In the FAQ
they express a really strange opinion about this: 'The live streaming
media service of the Council of the European Union can be viewed on
Microsoft Windows and Macintosh platforms. We cannot support Linux in a
legal way. So the answer is: No support for Linux.' An online petition
has been set up to create pressure to convince the EU council to change
its service to one that is platform independent." (slashdot)
