This means that with the current setup as described above, any 4.0 content will be played back with Unity 4.0 (from the Release channel), and any 3.x content will be played back with Unity 3.5.6 (from the Stable channel). When playing back content, the default behavior is to use the channel containing the lowest version which is new enough to play back that content, and then to download (if needed) that channel and play back the content using that version.

The Unity web plugin will install and use different release channels side by side. Once we start getting future versions of Unity into shape, you may also see a " Beta" channel becoming available. These channels provide downloads for different versions of the Unity runtime - " Stable" contains the Unity 3.5.6 runtime at this point, and " Release" is at 4.0. There are currently two release channels available, " Stable" and " Release". If you want to try this feature, download and install the latest Unity Web Plugin. The 4.0 Unity Web Plugin contains a new feature called " Release Channels", which allows it to download different versions of the Unity runtime based on the content being played and on the user-configurable default channel. So, with Unity 4.0, we've taken a new approach to releasing Web Player runtimes, to make it easier for you to test your content against upcoming releases, and to make it easier for us to publish new versions of Unity without breaking existing content. This is always very unfortunate when it happens, as nothing is worse then finding your existing content no longer work when a new version of Unity comes out. Nonetheless, we have not always succeeded in not breaking compatibility with new releases in the past. To ensure this, we have extensive automated test coverage for most parts of Unity and a manual test process which involves playing many popular games with new runtime versions. We are trying to do our best to ensure that new versions of the Unity runtime are always compatible with all existing content. This means that over time, more and more users of your content will be running it using the latest version of Unity.
Likewise, users who encounter content which has been built with a newer version of Unity than their Web Player runtime will automatically be updated to the latest version.
This means that users who newly install the Web Player will run content with the latest version.

When we release new versions of Unity, we also update the Unity Web Player to contain the latest Unity runtime.
