Oh man.. mobile compatibility. I have a nexus 4 coming in soon, so I might just give it a go. Making the video go away would make a few people happy for sure.
PS. This project seems perfectly suited for AngularJS. Also, check out Foundation framework for making both the desktop and mobile versions of the site ;) good luck. I will surely check back soon. This is a great project.
Give the user the ability to toggle video display. This does not violate Google policy. Everyone is happy ;)
