We should definitely take advantage of its popularity as a platform; but for integration with kde.org, perhaps we should consider something like blip.tv, which offers direct video streams and even supports Theora streams (whereas Youtube, even with direct streaming, would use H.264). It may not mean much in the end, but sometimes it pays to show support for services and products that exhibit a commitment to openness just as we do. Especially since they seem to be few and far between. @jos:
