flash/flex: progressive download vs. rtmp

Video or VideoDisplay in Flex: when does it make sense to use one or the other

Flex appears to have 2 video classes: Video and VideoDisplay. My question is when does it make sense to use one or the other? What I can tell from initial glancing is that VideoDisplay responds to mouse events because it inherits from IntaractiveObject, but I'm not sure if it's a real difference, because Video seems to have a workaround...
