The emphasis on online video content is an obvious shot at the spat between Google and Amazon about the YouTube app. Starting today, we will be able to expand the already great Fire TV experience by enabling viewers to surface a multitude of web content - including videos - through Firefox.” “Firefox has always been about bringing the web directly to people no matter what device they’re using.
