    Naw, I think it's more of a cost issue for them. The only thing they would need to support would be Flash on desktop vs HTML5 on mobile (and YouTube, Vimeo and most other big video sites do that with no problem). They just don't want to spend the funds on reencoding the video. Or there might even be an alliance with HP or other Apple competitors, although that's just speculation on my part.
