Possibly. I don't hear the video - while I have 2 sound cards, sounds in
flash is out of the question. It can't use the secondary card. Somekind
of pulseaudio wank could work, but I'm too lazy for that, since needing
sounds in flash is extremely rare.

True. But the difference between mail (wave) and NNTP (eg. web forums)
stay the same.

Possibly, if you can add recipients afterwards, but also that puts the
jobload over you. With newsgroups/forums usually anyone can join the
system and also read the messages from the past.
