and Vimeo is just copying YouTube by hosting videos
YouTube didn't invent the video hosting service.

No, but that made it popular.

Why did they delete your account?
You are not allowed to have videos from games.. They were trailers for the map I am making, and they were the only copies I had..

YEAH Removing my account was a PAIN in my ass.
I had to RE-ADD Myself with my NEW account,and re-"LIKE" all my favorites, so that my last 2 years on vimeo watching and finding good videos wasn't wasted... -_-
I have yet to find a place that can actually SHOW good quality 1280x720p and all users to download your original upload.

First time I see a "watch in HD" link under a video. Looks like they added it just recently?
The quality is of course still far from true High Definition quality, but it's certainly an improvement and I applaud YouTube for that.

I've waited ages for youtube to host HD content, can't wait for full HD 1080p

So is that the same as &fmt=22 quality?
Yes, it is the same.
it's still 720p HD, which I still think is true HD.
There's more to High Definition than just the resolution. The bitrate, for example, is far from "high" in YouTube HD videos.

Re: YouTube videos in 720p by adding &hd=1 to the link
I'm just uploading a video that is 1280x720, will it be HD or does it have to be 1290x720? I only just realised it was 90 not 80..
EDIT: Ah your first post seems to suggest 1280 works.

The "HD" parameter is now &hd=1: http://www.youtube.com/blog?entry=z-3cdIbKOqY
* Simpler HD Parameter: We want to give you more control over how your video looks, including the option of it being eye-blazingly clear (HD), so we've now added an official URL parameter (hd=1) for sharing HD links.
