Fair enough. If we take the "popular acclamation" theory of standardization, here's how it breaks down: h.264: IE, Safari WebM: Chrome, Firefox 4 Streaming

Fair enough. If we take the "popular acclamation" theory of standardization, here's how it breaks down:
h.264: IE, Safari
WebM: Chrome, Firefox 4
Streaming video with Flash: all of the above
In which case the most standardy standard is "h.264 over Flash", with native h.264 and native WebM tied for second place.
- jamesaguilar 16y agoIf you look at it from the perspective of the provider, the standard is h.264 files on the server, and various avenues through which you can deliver it. Saying WebM is tied for second place is vastly overstating its proximity in popularity space to h.264.
