I wish they would require everyone who views YouTube to use it. I hate programming specifically just for IE... If it were required for YouTube I don't think that any of the users I care about would lack it.
I had a hard time finding info about big sites that require GCF, so I was a bit worried about requiring it for IE 6 and 7.
But I went ahead with it on a site with 6-digit number of monthly users, and the results were great.
IE 6 and 7 usage bombed, and about 90% of that usage was picked up by GCF. Only a few complaints from annoying users, but telling them to "just click install" has been a good enough solution.
The users lost were also less likely to purchase than those with better browsers.
I am aware of at least one site that now points to it rather than saying they don't support IE6.
If you've made the decision to not support IE6, for whatever reason, it at least gives the opportunity for more users to maybe* access your site.
*I say 'maybe' because if users aren't able to upgrade their browser it's quite unlikley they're able/allowed to install such extensions/plugins either.
I always wait a bit before picking up new technologies such as this. I'm a patient person and don't feel the need to rush out and get the latest thing first.
Once the consensus is that it looks ok, runs ok and won't hurt me or my nearest and dearest I'll have a look.

我希望他们要求每个观看 YouTube 的人都使用它。我讨厌专门针对 IE 进行编程...如果 YouTube 需要它，我认为我关心的任何用户都不会缺少它。

我很难找到有关需要 GCF 的大型网站的信息，因此我有点担心 IE 6 和 7 需要它。
但我在一个具有 6 位数字的网站上继续使用它每月用户数，结果非常好。
IE 6 和 7 的使用量遭到轰炸，其中大约 90% 的使用量被 GCF 吸收了。只有一些烦人的用户抱怨，但告诉他们“只需单击安装”已经是一个足够好的解决方案。
与拥有更好浏览器的用户相比，流失的用户购买的可能性也更低。

我知道至少有一个网站现在指出了这一点，而不是说他们不支持 IE6。
如果您决定不支持 IE6，无论出于何种原因，它至少为更多用户提供了可能*访问您的网站的机会。
*我说“也许”是因为如果用户无法升级他们的浏览器，他们也不太可能/被允许安装此类扩展/插件。

在采用诸如此类的新技术之前，我总是会等待一段时间。我是一个有耐心的人，不觉得有必要急着出去先获取最新的东西。
一旦大家一致认为它看起来不错，运行正常并且不会伤害我或我最亲近的人，我就会看一下。
