The problem with Golbrick is it is poorly supported and buggy. I can't blame him, it IS free, but I would rather pay and get support and updates than get something free.

Most Golbricked videos also show a thumbnail image taken from the video which tends to make people want to click on it and view it, but half the time it just shows a lame blue M.

I don't know what would happen to the existing video links if one switched from Goldbrick to AME....

I've been meaning to try installing Goldbrick and PassiveVid on my demo board, posting a few videos and then unintalling and installing AME just to see if there's some kind of conversion process we can take advantage of. As far as I know, unless Goldbrick has something that will let you convert media tags, they'd just be regular URL tags.
