Greetings,

Cheers for the info. I would like to support Ogg Theora. Unfortunately
, and for a variety of reasons, it just hasnt caught on enough so far
to make me take it at all seriously at this stage. All the hardware
that has appeared in recent years that supports mpeg4 and h264 is not
helping.

Being free from patent woes, and quite good, is tragically not enough
to ensure adoption. Anyway I will go and study the html5 stuff in more
detail, I hope it points to a brighter future for theora, but I remain
highly skeptical.

Cheers

Steve Elbows
