Both links and video embedding depend (in this case) on Google's YouTube, and are used by uncountable websites, including the Cartoon Brew. It's unlikely that either will break; if anything, links might last slightly longer, as they can be easily redirected and do not depend on the browser being able to display a video.
Of course, if the owner of the video chooses to withdraw it, then neither links nor embedding will work.
