We recommend! Flickr announced today an expansion of its video program, opening it to all members and adding an HD option. HD is now available to paying pro users, whose previously uploaded clips will be re-processed to fit inside the new 16:9 HD player by the end of the week. Flickr is also opening up its video feature to free users, although their HD videos will only play in the SD player.

Free members can only upload 2 videos a month, and those videos can only be in standard definition. Starting today, Flickr Pro users, on the other hand, can upload high definition videos. But free members can enjoy viewing these HD videos nonetheless. This probably has something to do with server issues as HD Videos take up bigger server space than regular quality videos.
