- ArchReaper 9y agoFor "simple economic reasons" you believe companies will go out of their way to block Linux users for some reason? If the browser supports it, that's all that really matters.
- thephyber 9y agoCompanies browser-sniff, rather than feature-sniff. They shouldn't. But they usually do.
- rocqua 9y agoTo support EME on linux, they need to create an EME plugin for linux. Leaks in that plugin would kinda break DRM, so it needs to be designed well. Writing and maintaing a crypto plugin is quite expensive.
- AndrewCHM 9y agowouldn't it be Google or Adobe who would write the plugin? its not like they lack the developers or the such
- tedunangst 9y agoThat plugin is called widevine and it's been shipped with chrome for Linux for a year or more. It's already done. They don't need to do anything.
