I've sent the article as a pm. here's what Coates said about the alternate player [I have not tried it]

Let's move to watching YouTube and other video in the Flash video format, FLV. The slickest way to play these and videos in just about every format is with the VLC Media Player, from the VideoLan project that offers free software for Windows, Macs and Linux. The download prompts are available at www.videolan.org. This player was created by volunteer programmers in the open-source movement as an alternative to Microsoft software and from commercial outfits including Adobe.

This player comes up far faster than the Windows Media Player and adds new features, such as making a snapshot of a single frame.
