Haha. What a load of crap.

"won't retool their expensive libraries to accomodate the iPad"

They don't need to "retool" their libraries. All their content should be stored in an industry stadard format on their servers. All they have to do is change the front-end that accesses their content to allow it to be used on different devices.

Wow, what a concept. I bet this has never been done before - having your content adapt to work on various systems/browsers.

That statement is clearly taken out of context and is meant to try and fool people into thinking that anyone who wants to use HTML5 must completely redo all their content.


Gee, I wonder how all the other video sites were able to so quickly and easily add HTML5 support without "retooling" their libraries.
