... but not switching YouTube to use Ogg or atleast prefer Ogg suggesting that Ogg Theora doesn't meet their quality requirements while ignoring the fact that for a long time, they were using lower quality video doesn't seem that neutral to me.

How long do you suppose it would take youtube to re-encode their video base? I think the amount of resource required to do that means they have to take codec decisions very seriously.

They didn't say that re-encode is unpractical (which I think with their huge machine number isn't). They *incorrectly* stated that Theora would take much more bandwidth than H.264, by the voice of Chris DiBona, fake open source program manager at Google. Please read the link before commenting
