The tape WG wanted to preserve the synchronous aspect of the VCR, the physical eject of a VCR takes few seconds and you're usually watching it and not doing anything else. It should be the same for the UA. I tend to agree for rewind() and forward(), we may get them async, letting UA the freedom to implement a nice rewinding/forwarding animation while the command is executed. > > I'm also confused by the fact VHSOutput interface has a method, > streamToYouTube, that specifically supports one website.
