Thank you for proving my point, once again.
First, you were upset that my link was a direct link. Now, you're saying the iPad can't view raw links. Unless, of course, you mean something different with "raw video link", which seems unlikely and weird if true.
Not only is the source shaky at best but the article Jobs referred the alleged emailer to makes a lot of sense. No where does it say they won't support it, especially if it "wins".
Pretty weak.

HAHAHAHAHA.. you know the difference between iTouch Senior Citizen Edition-ready(a figure that ranges from 26% to 66% depending on the source) and ACTUALLy being seen by an iTouch Senior Citizen Edition right? Even if you take the incorrect 66% figure as correct for iTouch Senior Citizen Edition-ready video... you still can't ACTUALLY see it on an iTouch Senior Citizen Edition. End of story.

I'm assuming you're saying you can't actually see it because it's flash?
Again, you'd be wrong.

Megavideo, Zshare, wisevid, Youku.com, Tudou.com.. (I can name DOZENS more) have good portions of video that is encoded in h.264 (nowhere NEAR even 40%... but enough) Take a guess what percentage of video from those sites is accessible on an iTouch Senior Citizen Edition.... if you guessed anything other than ZERO, you'd be wrong.
THAT is the current state of things... I could give a crap about iTouch Senior Citizen Edition-READY video... what's the point if the sites refuse to serve said video... (see Hulu, NBC, Timne Warner)

Who said they're refusing (other than Hulu, NBC and TW - and those are for purely DRM issues)?
