OT

because then I'd have to upgrade my flash blocker, and if I couldn't I'd have to endure endless friggin horrible nasty ugly intrusive flash commercials...

Its now a constant game of constant useless upgrades and then upgrades to get around advertising vs enduring some ass virtually yelling at you in an ugly ad.

I use ClickToFlash (I think you use it too) and I've never had a problem with it not blocking Flash or being out of date compared to the version of Flash used. CTF has been wonderful, and if you have auto-updating turned on on Safari's extension prefs, it automatically updates itself too.

If you've had a different experience I'd like to know. Otherwise I think you're going to a lot of extra trouble to play videos when Safari handles them just fine.

The only think Chrome does slightly better than Safari is in page rendering speed, otherwise it's crap.
