Video will be played with HTML 5 obviously. As i look the results it seems obvious that Canvas animation with Javascript are useless comparing to flash capabilities now and CPU usage.

All these people saying "my Mac grinds to a halt every time I visit a webpage with Flash". I'm on a 13" Macbook Pro (not exactly the most powerful Mac) and I NEVER experience this! As a Flash developer, maybe it's because I normally visit sites created by developers with half-a-clue about how to develop properly. It's true that a badly developed Flash website can eat into your processor but I can't imagine HTML5, when the masses start developing complex applications with it, won't experience the same problems. We're seeing interesting HTML5 demos which perform well around the web now but you have to realise these are being developed by HTML5 *experts*. We'll see how your performance analysis tools average out when a wide array of HTML5 developers start implementing it in their websites... I’m at a loss.

following my google search on this topic i discovered the html5 beta on youtube

i switched and youtube is usable again

i think proprietary technology on open access media is a mistake

it gives us unusable web pages created by clueless ms tools, crappy video, and process-hungry spam

processor time is processor time whether cpu or gpu

i do enjoy cute e-cards and games tho

sorry, you’re right
it was a hypographical error
should have said “PowerBook G4″

i must have been caught up in the reality distortion field
created by my lust for the new mbpro’s
