Why is that unfortunate? Most people don't need anything more than 720p.
Don't be so naive. Nothing in life is 'free'.
There's always a catch. It may not 'impact' on you now, but it will. Once you out it on YT they 'own it', so you can kiss goodbye to making any money from that clip in the future!
Just sayin'
Doesn't anybody read the small print these days?
