I really have to +1 this (sorry)... As much as I love a clean and  
consistent Web, the fact is (apparently) that today we have two different  
APIs: the WebKit Web Audio API, and the Web Audio API. If we want to get  
rid of the WebKit version, all parties should be on board and ditch it. If  
not, I can't object to Mozilla (or anyone else for that matter) supporting  
both APIs (anything else would be hypocrisy).
