I can autoplay my favorites, so that's a plus. But I can't close the "related videos" tab? No "More videos from <user>"? WTF?!
They should have kept the star system. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it, Except for the author giving himself 5 stars, and being the only person to vote.
Same thing with the side where it had all the info. I like to read the info while I watch the video, and I can't do that if it's on the bottom. Also, it now looks like part of the comments.
They had a good idea with innovating it, though. The only problem is that they suck at innovation. Hard.
