The Hulu hype never ends at CNet and throughout the Microsoft controlled shillosphere.
Isn't this story supposed to be about the new YouTube format?

Why does anyone care? There's more to life than YouTube and pictures and videos.

So what the **** is the actual width and height of the new player???

Sometimes cnet is not useful. It talks about the new youtube player and the aspect ratio but does not mention the width and height at all.
