I see no reason why you couldnt offer both versions. Embed the Ogg...but offer an mp4 download link. Or embed the Ogg version and revert to mp4 for browers that don't read it: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Using_audio_and_video_in_Firefox#Embedding_media This stuff is still very new and chaotic, but its coming on strong. When the new Firefox natively supports Ogg, I think we'll see examples of how HTML5 enables more creativity on the page....versus video players locking in the media. Proof will need to be seen though. Jay -- http://ryanishungry.com http://jaydedman.com http://twitter.com/jaydedman 917 371 6790
