if they would stop working on multiple sets of drivers and stabilize and test one single driver over 3-4 months, things would be a whole lot more stable and probably simpler for the devs.
Monthly releases are only good if there is already a 95%stable/feature complete driver. Switching to the Windows driver development model on Linux was the stupidest thing they did.
And the snowball of unstable fglrx continues rolling down hill..

The problem is h264 is patented by stupid software patent laws and thus should be avoided and could be legally dangerous to implement support for. The lawyers who own the h264 patent(s?) keep extending the "it's free!" period to try to get the Internet and more users addicted to h264, so yes it is inferior for that sad reason.
Everyone should use WebM/VP8 and other socialized codecs and avoid patented ones like h264.
...and also rebel against corporate overlords who want stupid monopolies so they can screw up progress and decrease everyone's quality of life by stealing a chunk for themselves. How many more days have to go by before software patents are abolished?
