I didn't even get that far. I don't like watching videos on the Internet, mainly because I usually have other music playing, and they don't play so nice with linux. I don't want to have to stop everything I'm doing just to see what some - probably irrelevant - website is doing.

Get earcandy. It automatically fades music players once a flash video or a video player starts playing: https://launchpad.net/earcandy

Edit: regarding Gravity: I agree. While I do enjoy video's, because often they get the message across incredibly fast. This video doesn't. It's cute, but once I click explore and see a forum, it's a letdown.

The thing is, I don't want to have to stop my music just because someone wants me to watch their video. I like my music! What's the big problem with text these days?
