Chromium -vs- chrome on Linux Mint?

[Brian Cluff]

I've found 2 things that Chrome has that Chromium doesn't.  Chrome ships 
with a current version of flash built in which chromium doesn't have at 
all, unless you pull the flash out of a version of Chrome which can be 
easily done.  Chrome also ships with the necessary DRM libraries that 
allow you to play Netflix which you can't do with Chromium.
