Are there any you can buy today? I honestly don't know of any. EDIT: Thanks, I guess the answer is no...

1. On2 never went to market with VP8 before the sale to Google. To say that they weren't sued for something they didn't release doesn't prove anything, especially since VP8 was marketed as a evolution of VP6. 2. See #1, they licensed VP6 no

The encoder is good, but it doesn't hold a candle to x264. It's is still _very_ slow.

That's true, my only point is that it's a trend in the wrong direction: after Google makes this change there will be people will be using Flash for playback than there were before.

For full compatibility, yes, but realistically there was no reason to use to WebM. With h.264 you cover the following: 1) All browsers with Flash players 2) Any "web connected" set top device/TV 3) About 50% of HTML5 video compatible browse

They aren't supporting h.264 in the <video> element anymore, meaning there won't be anymore HTML5 video players that use h.264. As for Flash, who knows?

A big step backwards for HTML5 video adoption and premature IMO. Other than Android there isn't an existing consumer device out there that plays WebM that I know of. Certainly there is no hardware decoding. Now content creators who host the

I don't believe YT transcodes during upload, since last I checked they are doing 2-pass encoding (its been awhile though). However they do examine the buffer during an upload. Try uploading an MOV with bad edit points, they will warn you ab

Is this limited to 1-pass encoding only?

I can't think of anyone who embodies the hacker mentality better than the MakerBot guys. The polish on this version really shows. Keep it up!

I haven't used Google Reader on an iPad/iPhone but I think it's unlikely YouTube is using HTML5 there. Mobile Safari actually has a built in parser for YouTube embed code, so nearly any YT embed will work even thought it's clearly an <e

Because stealing someone's iPhone off a restaurant table isn't a felony, it's petty theft. You're trivializing what the new iPhone is. It represented millions of dollars of R&D and contained proprietary information so is therefor potent

But what did they lose in sales to people who are now holding out for a 4G? Thats the primary reason Apple is so secrative. I also very much doubt this story eclipsed a normal Apple media buy in terms of exposure.

It wouldn't be good for YouTube or other video sharing sites. There are two (well, two that don't require Flash) competing video codecs now-- it's expense that keeps them from both being utilized. Like the article says storage is the mitiga

Cranking up the volume on my MacBook I could barely make out every other word. That and the crappy 8fps + terrible lighting was a big turn off. Putting in the tiniest effort to production value goes a long way and shows you care a lot about

How is bandwidth pricing built from scratch? You're transferring bits like everyone else. Sure you might be doing it CHEAPER, but they didn't rewrite the rules to peering. These myths aren't "busted," they just refuted reported numbers with
