Apple Embedding YouTube Support into Quicktime
Posted on Apr 27, 09 01:43 PM PDT
Apple is reportedly adding native support for YouTube in QuickTime by making it easier for users to convert and upload movies formatted optimally for the online video site. This comes in addition of the strong support already present in the iPhone and Apple TV products. What Apple gets is that YouTube steps back from Flash Video, an Adobe proprietary format (to be fair Flash video sucks in fullscreen HD). YouTube gets support from a powerful brand with a lot of content creators. YouTube might also get "better" video uploads, meaning that files are optimally formatted for YouTube might even use less storage space. (Note: the image above is just a concept)
