       _I suspect that YouTube videos that start with a commercial, can't be
played without flash._


Keyword is suspect.  Unfortunately Adobe,  Oracle and others are selling out or renting out space to other companies and forcing upgrades,  perhaps unnecessarily. In order to put more coin in the bank.  Its still a Windows/Mac world in terms of what drives it.  Free software there means usually crippleware,  sponsorware,  adware,  anything but freeware.

There are more exceptions to free use than there is use.  Mozilla has told me so many times that I should upgrade shockwave,  flash player and all that in windows,  but not as often in Linux.  Your probably right, until the time when the public wakes up and finds out that what runs Android,  can run their computer very nicely.

I don't think any of us are holding our breath for that day.  It would be nice,  but....
