After reading into this article, I discovered that the player is for developers to download and install into their websites. HTML5 has made drastic accessibility improvements in many areas, including YouTube. But, as with many things, the responsibility falls on the developer of the website. We, as consumers, do not need to download this player. I think it's a nice effort, but I'm not so sure that it's going to go very far.
