Netflix "just works" on Firefox too (due to EME support). Spotify
is flash. If you install flash-plugin it works on Firefox too.
Installing Flash does not count as "just works"... and Firefox does
not support EME on Linux, and it won't support it for a while. I tried
it this week with both the release version, and nightly, and neither
had EME working.

"I'll look at this from a different point of view. What good is chrome,
no matter how wonderful and fast and easy it is, if an entire segment of
the population cannot use it? Where's the justification for not even
bothering to make it usable except through their own addons? I for one
have not bought into the wonderfullness of drm, or the "just works"
philosophy. Some of my community has, but I have not. No matter how good
a piece of software is, if I can't use it, it might as well be a black
screen. My two scents, I'll shut up now, I've beaten this dead horse
enough lol.
