googlevideo.com is a CDN. Up to what point do they control it?

  Most (if not all) other Google properties have no trouble supporting better encryption. This is probably an oversight.

    Or its for performance reasons. Grandma's computer might have issues decoding flash video in whatever codec it now uses (h264 I assume) that's also wrapped in 128/256-AES coming to her at HD quality.

  I think I've had a word about this before. It's a completely separate CDN from 1e100, often colocated, and purely software.
