With so much interest in/talk about Flash support on the pandora, I thought I might chip in with this little snippet:
For those who don't know what I mean:
It is pretty easy to extract the URL of the FLV from a youtube (or other) video. Then, you simply pass that URL to mplayer et voila, your video is playing. No need for any annoying site around the actual content you are interested in (especially useful for a device with a small screen. Like a Pandora..).
By posting this, I hope I made sure this does not get lost

Code:
youplayer() {which youtube-dl && mplayer $(youtube-dl -g $1)}
