It may have been in the works for quite some time, but it seems as though Youtube has finally gone the HD route. Of course, only the videos actually uploaded in High Definition will give you the option of watching them in HD, but its nice to see the huge difference once you click the "Watch in HD" button, provided you have a fast enough connection speed.
If you yourself would like one of these HD Watchable options, it seems as though you have to upload your content in a minimum of HD 720, which is 1280x720 resolution. Which of course is going to take a lot longer to upload if your content is decent quality. I'm currently exporting some of my older movies in 720P where possible, since the normal quality of Youtube always looked awful when I uploaded them in the past.
This is definitely a welcome addition, giving people the option of showing their content in much, much better quality.
