    Hi Kuan, a great idea in principal, but how do I rate, comment, favourite and share a video? I suggest an area of the screen where I can hover the mouse pointer and a pop up window appears where I can do all those things - YouTube is not all about watching, but interacting too!

    Also this week I see you guys have been experimenting with a Timeline idea on the homepage like on Facebook and Twitter, please don't replace all the modules like Most Popular with this, but if you do procede with a Timeline then I suggest a Lists feature to make it easier to keep tabs on the people I watch.

    Thanks for continuing to evolve!

    there should be an option for leanback to just randomly shuffle your favourites... been hoping for a feature like this forever.

    Yay, now we don't even have to click... seriously? Is anyone lazy enough to need a feature where they let the videos browse themselves?

    If this keeps up the human race is just going to stop.

    When I watched a video from my subscription box this black bar appeared under the video (the leanback thing). How do i turn it off?

    I really do NOT like this feature at all, it takes away a lot of my screen, it pops up almost everytime I want to switch tabs or browser windows, it looks absolutely horrible and gives me the impression you didn't know where to put it, this grey bar is like a foreign object. With all the advertising and the "new" youtube skin PLUS Leanback-bar, youtube looks way too overloaded.

    What really really really annoys me is the fact that I'm prevented from interacting with the community, due to the fact I'm so pissed because I always have to click on the stupid bar to hide it.

    Reason for being pissed: If I stop a video, because I want to reply to a comment, and therefore I need to scroll through the comments to find the right one, this stupid bar pops up and hides the complete comment section! EVERY F'N TIME! And because of "Leanback" a lot of video won't even play.

    Is "Leanback" really necessary? I don't think so. If I want to "leanback" and chill, I put a bluray in the player and sit on the couch. I'll never ever sit in an uncomfortable chair after hours of work (where I had to sit in an uncomfortable chair the whole time) for relaxing- this idea will never work for me.

    I use youtube because of the community aspect. I love to interact with other people, I love to read through comments and I love to take my time to respond to other users. Communication is the reason why I use the internet, but automating takes away all the interaction.

    Pls give us an option to completely turn off this whole feature in general, I don't want to see this improvement for the worse anymore. I want to have the choice to watch my subscriptions (btw. the sub box is broken... I can't x the vids I don't want to see) in any order, when I want, for how long I want.

    "Leanback" took away all the fun I had with youtube in the last five years. :(
