That's my take on it too. > 300 $a 1 online resource (1 streaming video file (xx min., x sec.)) A strict reading of the second paragraph of RDA 3.4.1.7.5 (Number of Subunits - Online Resources) limits the choice of subunit terms (the stuff in the second set of parentheses) to the terms listed under 3.19.2.3 (File Type) and no more. Note that the list does not include "streaming [something] file." Nor does 3.4.1.7.5 mention following the File Type option of making up an appropriate term like "streaming video file" (i.e., changing 3.4.1.7.5's "...specify the number of files using one or more terms listed under 3.19.2.3 to designate the file type" to "...specify the number of files following the instructions under 3.19.2.3 to designate the file type"). Again, strictly reading RDA, the streaming part is mentioned in a note of some kind, whether following the final paragraph of 3.4.1.7.5 or following 3.19.2.4 (Details of File Type)--perhaps for the latter, the term could be interpreted in such a way that it gets squeezed into the 300 $b. Kinda sucks, though. I'm hoping for a revision. -- Mark K.
