Apple very little to no interest in Flash video content as the iphone, appletv and iTunes all deal with Mpeg4 video and will most certainly stick with that quicktime compatible format. There's more going on behind the scenes.</p> One thing you have to remember is that while YouTube currently is serving crappy quality flash vids, they have been transcoding their catalog to Mpeg4 or H264.

You have to give them credit for wanting to connect with the market leader from early on, especially with Google as the owner. Makes you wonder if Steve isn’t sticking it to Microsoft on purpose by pushing Youtube.

p.s. Can’t wait to get iLife ‘08 and try out the new iMovie.

It's especially unfortunate because this perceived "standard" is so low in quality. And you're right Liz, they're not the only ones doing it. YouTube has become for online video what AOL was for browsers years ago.</p> I absolutely agree that this “is aiding and abetting the dominance of the video-sharing site, furthering its position as the standard for all things online video.” It’s especially unfortunate because this perceived “standard” is so low in quality.
