I think HTML5 is the future though so it makes some sense to start moving towards it. It's just too bad that it's in a state of disarray at the moment without solid built-in support across all the majors browsers for any one particular codec. I'm sure that will change in time and HTML5 will become the accepted standard.

I've been encoding my own videos for years. Why are other affiliates lazy?

How many videos do you add per week and from how many different sources and formats? If it's a few dozen, fine. But if one is adding hundreds or thousands then that isn't very realistic.
It's more logical for the sponsor to code it in different common formats because they only need to do it once as opposed to forcing hundreds of affiliates to reinvent the wheel and waste hours of their time and resources. The argument that the affiliate is lazy could easily be turned around on the sponsor in question.
