Which is better: embedded media players or external media players to view a video on?

Although I do like using the WMP embedded player I am going to have the say external. It gives the user a choice of what player to use. Not everyone has WMP nor does everyone use the same player to view videos.

external because you have more choices which you can choose from. unlike some embedded videos you cannot do anything about because it is already programmed. ;)

external...using right click and "save as" option...they can continue to surf

with internal...they usually have to sit on that page waiting...

as a publisher .. id chose enternal :P though i may seem dumb bein the only one saying that :P
cos in a way .. i can avoid ppl downloading my files .. i can just stream them .. and also .. the low-end users ( ppl with low end pcs and dialups .. say .. 128 mb ram ? ) need not open windows media players .. so taht saves ram too ;) in a way :d and .. its compact too ... yeah .. that limits the number of options :d .. but i can , in a way ... avoid files to be downloaded ...
