Is VH1.com ignorant or malicious in its refusal to allow my Mac access to the various bits of streamed content?

It's not just Macs. I have tried time and time again to download the required plugin on both my home-HP and work-Dell, and every time I try to stream anything (audio or video) from vh1.com, I get a note that I need whatever plugin. I download and install, then go back to open the song/video, and I'm told again that I need the plugin.

Bah humbug. I missed all the Brigitte/Flav fun because of that.

oh gawd, that Two Shots of Happy cover is bad. Bono wrote that song for Frank and it should have stayed that way.
