Flash is under some threat in most of the areas its been strong at in the past.
Canvas tag, css transitions, downloadable fonts, and various other things mean
it can be gradually replaced. I welcome this, not least because of the cost of
flash development tools. But it will take a long time
There's a lot of legacy flash content - youtube included.

As for the Youtube HTML5 experiment, I like it, it uses less CPU on my macbook
pro, although the saving is not hugely dramatic because of flash becoming more
efficient in that regard not so long ago.
It is missing quite a few features compared to the youtube flash version, and
Ive no idea what
As with posts in the past I still question how ogg will ever dominate video if
its only advantage is to do with licensing, as licensing issues with h264 dont
affect many of us so what is the point really?
This is a good question. Not sure I know the answer.
But why did Firefox gain so much
Well there are likely quite a lot of developers who are excited about various
things in html5, including the video tag. They may be excited about it because
it is potentially elegant and flexible and a standard that will work on a
variety of browsers platforms one day, and you dont need to buy
Vimeo has also added an HTML5 player (though they intend to keep it as a
companion to Flash):
