I cannot wait to rub it into all the "but H264 is already standard, there is no way that there will be another format supported" zealots. For a patent-free better future!
- mambodog 17y agoRight, but not many organisations are in a position to come along and do us all* a big favour as Google is here. Between being able to afford it, having a browser and a mobile OS, and YouTube, they are really holding the right cards to do this. Anyway, my point is, if Google weren't going to do it, then those 'zealots' would quite possibly have a point. *I am under no illusion that 'us all' doesn't largely include Google themselves in this case, of course.
- tvon 17y agoI haven't taken it as H.264 zealotry so much as an opposition to using Theora for reasons that practically boil down to idealism. A free, open standard that is also technically superior, well... that's a big win all around.
