 The arguments I would have against going all https are: 1. some networks
 may block https and that would mean users wouldn't see videos and 2. its
 unexpected behavior - do we do that anywhere else? (serve up https when
 http has been embedded)? and 3. it's a waste of resources (serving over
 https vs. http)
