YouTube to get 1080p videos next week

@ 2009/11/13
YouTube currently lets folks choose between 360p, 480p, and 720p resolutions, distinguishing the latter two with the letters "HQ" and "HD," respectively, in the player interface. Google doesn't say how it will present the new resolution, but it does note that material already uploaded in 1080p format will become available at full resolution soon. Nobody should need to re-upload any hefty video files, hopefully.
