YouTube converting videos to H.264

TUAW, among many other sites, is reporting that YouTube is in the process of transcoding some portion of their catalog from Flash Video to H.264. The move is in order to support Apple TV and, some claim, the iPhone.

It is not clear if this signals YouTube's move away from Flash or just the addition of a format. What is clear is that the Apple/Google partnership is working wonderfully and bringing great new tools to end users.

The support for H.264 on the web's largest video site is very interesting.
