Playing IAC music on iOS and Android devices, and on modern browsers
Work is underway right now to replace the IAC Flash Player with an HTML5 player, supported by modern browsers such as Chrome and IE9, and including those provided with iOS and Android devices. On older systems not supporting HTML5, there will be a transparent fallback to Flash. To the user, the representation of the player, visually and functionally, will be the same.
The new player will have an updated, modern look. It will size itself appropriately for a given device.
The first implementation will come in about a week and will be associated with the link "stream all" on the Hitline on the IAC front page. Then we'll have two weeks or so of testing with users experiences discussed here on the Pipeline. If all goes well, the implementation will be extended to all instances of a player sitewide. Finally, the Export Player function will be updated to use the new player.

"On older systems not supporting HTML5, there will be a transparent fallback to Flash. To the user, the representation of the player, visually and functionally, will be the same."
Does this mean everything will stay the same on older operating systems and not require any change in browsers or downloading new applications? (I'm only referring to computers, not phones)
