With Netflix moving to HTML5, and Youtube already supporting HTML5, there's fewer reasons to even bother with Flash or Silverlight plugins.

- pyre 13y agoExcept for the videos on YouTube that don't support HTML5 yet. From here[1]: | Additional Restrictions (we are working on these!) | | - Some videos with ads are not yet supported (they | will play in the Flash player) | | - On Firefox and Opera, only videos with WebM | transcodes will play in HTML5 | | - If you've opted in to other testtube experiments, | you may not get the HTML5 player (Feather is | supported, though) [1] http://www.youtube.com/html5 http://www.youtube.com/html5
- drivebyacct2 13y agoThat experiment is frankly just old, and wrong.
- ancarda 13y agoThe YouTube HTML 5 player is basically done now, it works just as well as the flash one. I wish they would stop "experimenting" and roll this out across the site. They seem to have no timeframe for releasing it.
