Dev goes 'Wild' with H.264 Firefox

Never!

I'm from Greece and we know it's not gonna happen...

As for the whole .H264 thing...It is probably already over, The entire media\broadcast world as said before, has pretty much switched to .H264 as a deliverable and lately as a recording codec (AVCHD) on low end video cameras and SLR's with 24p or 25p 1080 recording.

The world is quickly filling from H264 material. wmv 9 hd from evil Microsoft never really hit it.. Instead it is evil Apple now along with its friends. I guess everyone would prefer not to have to deal with patent and royalty issues, but in terms of industry and user adoption .H264 is the winner for this round, browsers are going to have to find a way to follow the trend, until something new and "exciting" changes the landscape.
