I like that Google is so aggressive - maybe some of the other browser vendors will begin to care.&lt;p&gt;I ranted about the &amp;#60;audio&amp;#62; element quite a while ago[1] and many points are still valid. Also, &amp;#60;audio&amp;#62; can&apos;t be used for &quot;dynamic&quot; sound at all. Chrome&apos;s/Safari&apos;s WebAudio is the way to and Mozilla agrees, but hasn&apos;t done anything implementation wise.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.phoboslab.org/log/2011/03/the-state-of-html5-audio&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.phoboslab.org/log/2011/03/the-state-of-html5-audi...&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

Google nuked Firefox is what really just happened. It was really fun, while Google was using its home page powers to mock IE for missing features, but I am on Firefox Beta Update channel and they tell me to &quot;upgrade to a modern browser&quot;. It is disappointing.</text></comment>
