Over the last few weeks, I've been finding an increasing number of Youtube videos that don't offer the "use old embed code" option. It's a problem I've seen popping up in other places on the internet too, so I'm pretty sure it's not a me being dumb thing. Taking the old embed code from another video and swapping the URL still works, but this unfortunately isn't the most user-friendly option.
I haven't found any official word from Youtube about there being a particular reason: it could be anything from them sneakily trying to phase out the old code to a simple hiccup that'll be fixed... either way, I figured it was worth drawing attention to it.
Perhaps a work-around to get the new code working, and make Fans futureproof?
