Thats all we need
From next week you will be able to watch video footage of kids falling over, fat people running into trees and amusing cats falling off shelves in glorious high definition.
YouTube says starting next week it will support the same high-resolution video that can now be seen on flat screen TVs. Google will support video playback in the full high-definition format known as 1080p, upgrading from the current 720p. A YouTube spokesman said the company is not worried about infrastructure problems or higher costs associated with supporting bulkier files.
Videos will still have a 10-minute limit, although the maximum file size will likely get a boost from 2 gigabytes. Videos that had already been uploaded at 1080p will be automatically re-encoded to play back at the higher resolution.
