Which is nice. But, sadly, the links are set with autoplay=1, which is definitely not nice. In feed readers, most of which fetch content a little bit ahead of time, a video starts playing, usually with sound, out of control of the user before they're even viewing the post. Google Reader, particularly demonstrates this problem. Please let me, the user, control when sounds and video start playing in my browser.
