I agree that most YouTube video is very poor quality but the kids don't seem to care. When I worked at ABC, I was in a department meeting with the President of Broadcast Operations and Engineering discussing ABC's plans to use 720p. I commented that I thought it was more important to produce content that people wanted to watch. The room went silent. I guess the FCC's digital mandate will make the latter point moot - at least with regards to television. Thanks for the updates to the links.

Here are two sources that are still current (April 2007) from the Jay Leno show. Allows you to download the video file locally: http://www.irlp.net/sy/CW_vs_SMS.wmv Flash version from YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zkbyDvc3FQ Flash version or anything on YouTube are very poor in quality. Tonight Show with Jay Leno is in HD.
