I agree. They've done such a good job in mimicking the look of the Flash player than many in the HTML5 opt-in probably don't realise half the videos they watch are presented in Flash.

Thanks for the links, very interesting reads. I agree that the HTML5 player has vastly improved, but if the issues I'm experiencing with the player now persist, I don't think that it's nearly ready to replace Flash - or, I don't think they should.
