I wish they would un-implement it. Depending on whose analysis you read, YouTube is either the first or the second biggest user of bandwidth in the world.

As a person who works in the bandwidth optimization arena (yes, different business) I love it (makes me $$$$) but man does it slow down the internet and when I'm browsing on my Blackberry or on a slow connection it just mucks things up!

What most people tend to forget is that not everybody has broadband, in fact a minority worldwide have broadband or even a semblance thereof.

The link takes practically zero bandwidth; certainly far less than some of the photos we routinely attach to posts. It's only when you actually stream it (and it's always your option not to) that significantly higher bandwidth is required.

If you have a problem with this...fine.

Others don't. There is no need to "ban" something simply because it doesn't work for you.

Skip over the thread or don't play the video.

Your choice. Personally, I think it's kinda neat and I like it.
