Most people would have also read the conversation in context, instead of pulling it out of the conversation and applying it incorrectly.

Are you sure you're not Fox News?

Can you watch all YouTube video on an iPad? Simple question. Either way, I'll let ya keep YouTube... it doesn't change the fact that it was pretty clear that you and others said HTML5 was coming fast and furious and DaFace and myself stated that it was gonna take a lot longer than you may think.
I can watch the overwhelming majority in the YouTube app or Safari. Far in excess of 99%. Perfect? No. Acceptable enough to say that YouTube works well on iOS? Absolutely. And for that small percentage that won't? There's an app for those, too.

Most of the top sites offer mobile or HTML5 versions now. That's what is pretty clear. Even sites outside of the top 100 are on the bandwagon. iOS is a perfectly viable platform.

It's also clear to me that you are the PERFECT Apple customer.. your expectations for a web experience are set so amazingly low that you are easy to please. I am much more demanding.
As I've said many times before, I don't alter what I view between my iPad and my Win 7 machine. I look at the same exact websites. I have encountered zero issues doing so. You, on the other hand, are in the extreme minority who are so demanding, anything less than perfect is garbage. I rarely have to workaround, but they are there. Like I've said before, it's not perfect, but what Apple does well, it does REALLY well. Certainly well enough that it overshadows a couple of minor inconveniences.
