That's something the Google Play store wanted to forbid, they added in
their T&Cs that an application isn't allowed to download a binary
executable, similar to Apple's T&Cs.
And Firefox was downloading OpenH264 directly from Cisco due to the
licensing terms as you mentioned.

I don't know what happened there, I had been working on using the
system framework decoders for H264 but I've since left.
