I recently published a sum-up of our thinking at A List Apart (

)—in short, using the <video> markup pattern as the inspiration, with
the use of media attributes on the <source> elements to determine the
rendered source, and the inclusion of an <img>--ideally a smaller image,
to account for the lowest-common-denominator--as a fallback similar to
the way Flash or an image might be used as a <video> fallback.
Why not use a media attribute of <object>? That way you should get media
type disambiguation for free.
