Except for the videos on YouTube that don't support HTML5 yet. From here[1]:

  | Additional Restrictions (we are working on these!)
  | 
  | - Some videos with ads are not yet supported (they
  |   will play in the Flash player)
  |
  | - On Firefox and Opera, only videos with WebM
  |   transcodes will play in HTML5
  |
  | - If you've opted in to other testtube experiments,
  |   you may not get the HTML5 player (Feather is
  |   supported, though)

The YouTube HTML 5 player is basically done now, it works just as well as the flash one. I wish they would stop "experimenting" and roll this out across the site. They seem to have no timeframe for releasing it.


That experiment is frankly just old, and wrong.
