AS2 vs AS3

[interaktive]

I'm in the midst of learning actionscripting 3, but I was wondering if it's better to learn as2 being that more people have the flash 8 player than the flash 9 player and up. If you're building a site that should be viewed by most people, isn't it better to build it in as2? Or do you build everything in as3 and have a flash detector? What is the best practice is what i'm really trying to learn.

thanks,

In short you might want to learn both.
