Youtube cuts off support for non HTML-5? that will take ages, since IE7 nor IE8 really supports well HTML-5. HTML-5 in Firefox will not be really used since Google encodes video with H.264, not with Ogg.
In short, I hardly see Youtube cuts of support for non HTML5 browsers for at least a year, two years.
