Currently Youtube provides an option to view the quality version of the video but it still does not provide any method to let users embed high quality version of the video on websites.
The hack below will allow the embedding of high resolution Youtube videos. All you need is to append &ap=%2526fmt%3D18 to the url.
Default Embed Code:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2BgyhHBoz50"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rw8gE3lnpLQ&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed>
</object>
High Resolution Embed Code:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2BgyhHBoz50&ap=%2526fmt%3D18"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rw8gE3lnpLQ&ap=%2526fmt%3D18" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed>

When Internet Explorer 7 had just launched, Yahoo released its own customized version as a marketing promotion and Google too followed this idea. However not only was the idea ripped, the graphical user interface was too similar for comfort that Jeremy Zawodny of Yahoo had to cry foul. Check the screenshots below and you will find that the design, layout and wordings are basically the same.

Yahoo IE7 Splash
The designer hired by Google to design the IE7 Splash page should definitely be fired since this is a clear sign of laziness and unintuitive work. Nothing can be more frustrating than to see your hard work being ripped off by someone else.
Matt Cutts offers apologies on behalf of Google but also pointed out that Yahoo does has its own share of copycatting Google’s AdWords design. Google had also changed their page too after the recent spate of blog posts on it.
