Brightcove just announced that they will now be delivering HTML5 video to iPad owners. Essentially this means all of brightcoves partners will be able to stream HTML5 videos to devices that don’t support flash (iPad, iPhone, Android, other mobile devices).
All of brightcoves other partners will have access to these features as well.
Apple has single handily convinced the industry to move away from a proprietary solution (flash) to an open standard. This is simply great news. I look forward to being able to playback rich multimedia in browser without a plugin.
