Dearest, loveliest readers, did you know that if you’re watching a youtube video, you can add &fmt=18 onto the end of the URL, and you will get a higher quality version? This apparently works if the original uploader uploaded it in a fairly large resolution. In a highly scientific study of about five videos it seems that sometimes you also get higher quality sound. This is fantastic for better watching the enormous — but frequently crippled by quality — selection of classical music videos online.
