Youtube – Changing skins of the YouTube player, currently seeing black version

For the last month or so I've had a dark YouTube player

It doesn't appear for all my computers/locations, and I haven't been able to find any news or announcements about it. I like the new skin, and I'm interested to know more about it:

  • Why move to black instead of white?
  • Can I enable/disable different skins?
  • Is anyone else getting to use this new player?
