Embed is not an official W3C tag and never has been. It is a relic from
the browser war era. Use of it produces several validation errors, as
you can soon find by validating a page using embed at the W3C
validator. The object code is used rather than embed these days and has
been around many years now. I know many still use embed for media for
non-IE browsers. However I think it is very bad to suggest that someone
use it at this late date. So far, I have not found a situation where it
is necessary to use embed. Of course in the near anarchy of the web,
just about anything seems to go.
