That is why a global and free Internet video standard may help.
How, if companies like Apple are happy to not use the standard, de-facto or
otherwise?
The point I'm trying to make is that Internet standards do exist, and
they're even used extensively. But companies find it in their best interest,
at times, for reasons that have nothing to do with just progress, to
gleefully violate them. So we are going around in circles.
That's why I got so irritated with Apple, when they came up with their
ridiculous excuse for not supporting Flash RTMP.
Anyway, as you can see, if TV broadcast stays away from this unnecessary IP
overhead, when actually dealing with broadcast distribution, it ain't
exactly a bad thing. It removes overhead and a whole layer of corporate
politics.
