Wait, Mozilla has a license to a Google product to display video... that they won't give to any other OSS projects?
Like, if you forked FF, you wouldn't be able to display video either?
That is EVIL.
It means effectively there will never be another open source browser that can be display commercial-popular video, Firefox is IT, they have an open source monopoly? Oh geez.
Well, from what I understand, Google insists on any project that uses that solution license it. If Firefox were to trickle this down, they could get their license revoked. The onus is on Google to stop being asshats.
