Pros and Cons of Youtube Embed?

[RobDog888]

<font color="darkgreen">There are allot of issues with embeding youtube code in your posts.

If youtube is down then your player wont load/play.
If youtube removes a post for whatever reason, like copyright or offensive, then your player post is broken
Youtube has that stupid mouseover scrolling "browse" to play other videos.
Youtube can direct traffic away from your site if they double click the player.
If Youtube is slow then the video will take forever to load and/or play.
You dont get to "review" the video first unless you send all posts with the bb tag to the moderation quyeue.
Depending on your bb code tag replacement code, you may be subject to scripting attacks.

Bottom line is that ther is nothing like hosting videos on your site yourself.</font>
