Using HTML 5 and Javascript will not guarantee Linux support.  There is the 
everpresent spectre of DRM to contend with.  Anyway, it is difficult to harden 
Linux to prevent someone from using the debugging tools to reverse engineer the 
DRM.  Windows is much harder to hack in that respect,  So I don't hold out much 
hope of them to support Linux. (Speculation.)  Besides, the tech support for 
Linux would be a nightmare for any company.
