The better we document and explain Firefox's HTML5 support, the more developers learn about it and put it to use in real world web apps, the more feedback we get on Firefox's HTML implementation and know what to improve and iterate on, etc. A key goal here is to encourage an ever stronger feedback loop that improves the state of the art of HTML.

The only important website that uses WebM is YouTube, Google's video sharing service. Internet Explorer, Safari and iOS devices are still yet to think about supporting WebM.

WMP HTML5 Add-on for Firefox
According to Microsoft,
The HTML5 Extension for Windows Media Player Firefox Plug-in is an add-on that enables Firefox users to play H.264-encoded videos on HTML5 pages by using the built-in capabilities found in Windows 7.
The Extension is based on a Firefox Add-on that parses HTML5 pages and replaces Video tags with a call to the Windows Media Player plug-in so that the content can be played in the browser.
This Add-on replaces video tags only if the video formats specified in the tag are among those supported by Windows Media Player. Tags that contain other video formats are not touched.
