Google Removing H.264 Support in Chrome
So in the near future to use the <video> tag, you'll need an H.264 file for IE and Safari, OGG for Firefox and, WebM for Chrome.

The next version of Firefox will have support for WebM[1].

Good to hear. Now need to get WebM into the average web video production workflow.

Well, both Firefox and Chrome will be able to do both Theora and WebM in the future, but the problem stands. Notably, the lines seem to splitting along who are licensors of H.264 and who aren't.

Doesn't Firefox support WebM already?
