HTML5 is the logical replacement, with media well supported right in the specs. Flash is so rife with security vulnerabilities that this can't come quickly enough!!

(I believe you can still enable Flash on a site-by-site basis...for now.) Firefox has typically been in lock-step with Chrome, so if Flash isn't disabled in FF yet, I'd expect it to be soon.
