    Depends on the amount of frames... If it has a thousand, then it could be worth a million.

    Here I am still using HTML5 since it has way better compression.

    Actually I was waiting on counter-proposals and additional ideas before making a poll. The feedback in the thread has been pretty clear, though, so I don't think I need to make one

    Just a few observations I have made so far with gifv, gif and gfy:

    GIF: https://gfycat.com/PeskyPleasantCat#?format=gif (25Mb)

    GIFV: http://i.imgur.com/5m3k73m.gifv (2.5Mb)

    GFY: http://gfycat.com/PeskyPleasantCat (758k)

    I still think HTML5 video is vastly superior since all imgur is doing is taking a gif and using MP4 as a method of compression. The only real advantage of Gifv is that it's easier to put onto websites and it does not take massive amounts of data, which loads it way faster.

    Both the first one and the 2de one loaded faster than the 3de one.

    Well then I could probably pin it to the the difference between a free service and one that accepts payment for premium accounts, but that is splitting hairs.

    Something interesting I discovered in implementing MyGaming's GIFV support (it's live, by the way) is that GIFV and Gfycat are essentially the same thing.

    So our GIFV tag will support either service. You just need to know what the direct link is to the videos.
