This whole area is a little murky but I want to point out that Netflix has supported HTML5 video for a while: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;help.netflix.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;node&#x2F;23742" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;help.netflix.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;node&#x2F;23742</a>.  Using EME no less (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;techblog.netflix.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;html5-video-is-now-supported-in-firefox.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;techblog.netflix.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;html5-video-is-now-suppo...</a>)<p>I was mostly trying to point out that the previous comment was referring to Flash and Silverlight as if they weren&#x27;t fading&#x2F;phased out technologies (which they are as I understood it).<p>As far as DRM goes, the whole thing is sticky, but I am mostly against this adoption to W3 since in its current purposed state, it seems too far counter to the open ideals of what the W3 should embody.<p>To clarify: I am not against DRM, I am against DRM that allows publishers to dictate consumer behavior (such as what browser can play the content) and I think EME puts too much power unrelated to DRM back in the hands of the publishers.<p>But I might be wrong.
