I for one, though do not use Chrome (I use Safari) myself, have put Chrome on every PC I help set up, until yesterday. Sorry, Google. I just like the fact that I can put up videos I shot with my camera on my website without transcoding and my friends would view them just fine from their browsers and phones. I don't know which side is more open - and therefore more right - in this controversy, but in addition to openness, I support industrial collaboration. And more importantly, video codecs are used beyond just web. How about looking further and see the frustration that the non-web video people would have because of this action.
