Nothing could convince me to use the full-fat Chrome version though, I'd rather use IE. Hell, I'd rather use Netscape Navigator, Links or Mosaic rather than Chrome. Firefox is a much better browser though, and as Chrome/Chromium don't have proper noscript addons there is no way I'm changing. To give Google some credit though, they correctly build multimedia support against proper ffmpeg instead of the horribly broken libav that Debian and Ubuntu so unwisely choose to package. This is why you'll have the chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra package installed by default if you add Chromium to your system.
