Actually, I think they're doing their customers a service by forcingsites to provide content that isn't in a proprietary format.Laszlo Lebrun
And you seem to be convinced by this brilliant argumentation.That is the very reason, is it?So then, why does Apple refuse to use the WebM open videos format andstick to H.264 which is proprietary _and_ patented _and_ requiring fees?KDTLaszlo Lebrun
You mean like *every one else in the entire video industry*
Is it proprietary and with fees or not?
That was the question.
Flash is proprietary, however do not require any fee, neither for
encoding nor for decoding.
You do realize that the most popular "Flash encoded video" is actually H.264 in a Flash container right?
