Sure. But you also have a lot of factors working against you.

Basically no one but Google is particularly interested in VP9. Most of the key players in the IT industry are part of the H.26x camp. And when you have Apple who dominates mobile browsing not interested then content creators won't be interested. This flows onto component suppliers.

Nonsense. You can't really believe this. Apple only needs one video chip set provider. All the other suppliers need to get a piece of the Android pie, which requires them to support VP9.
