"While reportedly Chrome will ship with Ogg Theora support their
flagship video site YouTube seems afraid to do so. Their rep at the
round table stated some pretty audacious things such as continuing the

directly debunked (the side by side comparisons were even playing on
HDTV’s at the conference)."
