"So, no there is no way to click through to the video"

Because the site set it up that way. Intentionally. So, yes, I blame the site.

Sites with a clue (like YouTube and Vimeo) have been serving HTML5 video for a couple of years now.

It's just a matter of adding another step to your automated transcoding workflow (you have one, right?)

For a small indie site the disk space consumed by keeping video in 2 or 3 different formats might be an issue, but for CBS?
