Then the preference differs per person. Optimal for me would be if anyone can create a personal whitelist of websites that may autoplay :)

EDIT: or "learn" I guess, let's see how long it takes to learn my simple whitelist and how often it will randomly decide to change :p

Not the same thing, if going by the article. If I eventually play all the videos, at my own leasure, it will still learn that I play the videos and start playing immediately when the page loads.
