Default A "YouTube Channel" possible?

I was wondering, would a YouTube channel be in range of posibilities?

Like AppleTV, who has a great interface for YouTube, it would be great to have this for the Wii.

Browsing YouTube on a Wii (through the Internet Channel) is hopeless with a lot of content and small fonts and failing full screen video (= constantly loading video while audio is playing).
Striped down front-ends as webpages are unable to display full screen video... not an option!

Would be a great Channel, I guess.

It's possible, it's just a matter of nintendo wanting something like that.

Things that would be nedded for this to work:
* playback flv on the wii? -> dont know if the actual wii media player supports it...
* internet conection? -> there is a http homebrew server that runs on the wii, so i think it can be possible
* developers with time? -> who knows xDD it would be a nice app though

Flv playback on the Wii... If Opera can do it with Flash in the Internet Channel Problem there is that it won't play full screen on my Wii (keeps loading forever).

Yeah, someone with a lot of time is the biggest

wasted effort. Let the people work out linux better, then we can have a firefox channel. It'll be better than stupid Opera.
