Walmart Rejects Firefox and Safari

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the also-dalmations-have-spots dept.

babooo404 writes "Last week, Walmart launched their online video download service. Immediately there were posts that the service did not work with the Firefox or Safari browsers. There was a collective, "WTF" when this happened as this is 2007, not 1997. Now it appears that reports are out that Walmart has completely turned off the ability to get into the application at all by Firefox, Safari or any other browser it does not like."

    Seriously what are they thinking. Do they not know that some people who use IE will find any excuse to download using Bittorrent. Including not supporting their best friend's preferred browser.
