erm okay but why would the most notable point be that you can stream youtube videos to ps3's and xbox 360's, you can use the ps3 browser to watch youtube vids why would it be neccisary to stream them from your pc.

Do you realise that if you use a greasmonkey script you can get Hi-Quality videos via youtube but this is for firefox users only as it is an open source browser and ppl are allowed to modify it for all our benefit, and youtube even have an option in your account settings that enables you to select higher quality images if available!

sign into your youtube account goto Account, in the Account options click on, Video Playback Quality then select, I have a fast connection. Always play higher-quality video when it's available.

Youtube High Quality howto download the High Quality Version

imho opinion the greasemonkey script is far better but i'm fairly certain that the ps3 cannot use forefox as open source is the like the public domain "a disgrace to the forces of evil".
