Google's VP9 Gets Hardware Support, Poised to Be the Dominant 4K Streaming Codec

"Google boasts a 50% increase in bandwidth efficiency with VP9"

"Almost all major hardware vendors will begin to support VP9 natively within their products this year, as well as enable YouTube to stream up to 4k to computers and devices". The list of new hardware partners is exhaustive and includes:

ARM
Intel
Nvidia
Samsung
Sony
Panasonic
Sigma
LG

TechCrunch reports that it was easy to sign partners up for VP9, as it is unencumbered by complicated licensing issues"
