video is already covered by special-casing sites like YouTube
Is that a good solution? it has the consequence that in order to make your new video startup site successful (on the iPhone), you have to first pay off Apple. That sounds to much like the anti-net-neutrality stuff for me.
And I can't then embed video on a blog post, or somewhere else that isn't a "special case site" for video.
- jasongullickson 17y ago"...first pay off Apple." ...or write an app yourself that specializes in playing your video (you can register third-party apps to handle custom URL's, without any special treatment from Apple) and use it as a marketing tool to bring attention to your startup (which could use a way to set itself apart from the many other video startups). I'm not sure where you're going with your "net-neutrality" comment, but feel free to enlighten me.
- StrawberryFrog 17y agoYou have to pay off x to get your site on the internet, where x is ISPs in the no-net-neutrality scenario, and Apple in yours, but is bad and wrong either way
