According to the recent study about 2/3 of streaming web video can match HTML5. That means that Adobe Flash is not required any more for best part of content over the web.
Over 60 % of all streaming video in the Internet is compatible with HTML5. This information was received from  MeFeedia (via CNET), which is a video-sharing resource. During the last year, the amount of video content in the Internet that does not need Adobe Flash has increased greatly, for instance, it has grown over 50% in less than a year. Certainly, it would please Steve Jobs greatly. We all remember how the Apple CEO declared last year that Apple is not going to support Flash.
HTML5 is the latest version of HTML and the first means which will support embedding tags in webpages, letting websites embed video not applying to plug-in similar to Adobe Flash. At present, H.264 is considered to be the most well-liked fresh format. By the way, Google stopped its support in Chrome browser.
In spite of the fact that some video sites (Hulu, for instance) have refused from HTML5,  the most important players have admitted it. Among them you will find YouTube, Vimeo, Daily Motion, Blip TV. While the alteration away from Flash means that the market is more mature, a range of new formats for video make the task of posting video in the Internet more complicated.
MeFeedia also says that mobile traffic increased 5 times. Now it makes 5% in comparison with 1% it had a year ago.
MeFeedia has 30 million videos from over 33,000 video resources.
