Yes and No. The difference between OGV & WebM vs H264 is that H264 requires external libraries for it to work. Especially on Linux or FreeBSD (read the fine print... appropriate gstreamer plug-ins are required). On the other hand, OGV and WebM (I think) are fully baked into the browser source code - just like JPG or GIF support. At least for Opera, Chrome and Firefox. Anything MPEG and H264 are patent nightmares and requires licensing. Do some Google searching to find out more - there are tons of information, especially for content producers (somebody making video files).
