HTML5 is not enough on its own when it comes to watching content offered by commercial video services though as they require DRM on top of that. These technologies are for the most part replaced by HTML5 which all modern browser support out of the box. This old architecture enables support for Flash, Java, Silverlight and other plugins in the browser so that web services can make use of them, for instance to stream video to the browser. Google actually blocked these types of plugins already in Chrome, and Microsoft did the same for them in the company’s new Edge browser. Mozilla, just like Google and Microsoft, plans to remove support for so-called NPAPI plugins in Firefox. Firefox users will soon be able to play Amazon Prime Video without requiring the Microsoft Silverlight plugin to do so.
