• Compression
  • Newer, more-efficient formats (HEIC, WebP, Opus) exist but displace slowly because decompression support must reach end-user devices and decoders must be portable across platforms

    This sourceA history of free/open-source software. SUPPORTS marker 180 only by loose analogy (deployment inertia) — the marker sits on 'Newer, more-efficient [media] formats (HEIC, WebP, Opus) ... displace slowly because decompression support must reach end-user devices'; this FOSS history does NOT address media-codec format ossification, installed-base lock-in, or HEIC/WebP/Opus. NON-SUPPORTING for the specific claim. Date is ~2005/2008, not 2012, and publisher is Reed Media Services, not 'Groklaw'. See flag.
