One other interesting aspect to the whole Flash/HTML5/h264/Theora debate going on:
Firefox devs have made a pretty big deal about how HTML5 should use Theora, not h264, because Theora is open source, while .h264 is proprietary.
My question is, why did Firefox do everything they could to ensure Flash, another proprietary format, to become so ubiquitous in the first place, by including it within Firefox, instead of requiring a separate download, to allow it to compete?
