> YouTube works fine now. YouTube cat videos work fine without DRM, but YouTube is expanding into pay-per-view content that relies on Google's own Widevine DRM. > Google, Apple et al put their full weight behind DRM and patent-encumbered formats, so Mozilla has to go along with it to stay relevant. Mozilla tried to hold out on H.264, waiting for Google to fulfill their promise to drop H.264 from Chrome. Google broke their promise and Firefox lost many users in the meantime. If Netflix doesn't work in Firefox or YouTube is "best viewed in Chrome", then Mozilla will lose users and relevance in guiding future web standards and privacy. |
