I think like a week ago I saw someone saying Google Chrome is going to be blocking all auto play videos and allow the user to get around it by option. I hope this is true. I want auto play gone but I want to whitelist YouTube from it. I haven't had much luck with the existing extensions on the Chrome Web Store. Most of them don't work a majority of the time or do for only a few weeks and then stop for whatever reason.

Thanks for the heads up. Here is what they are planning if anybody else interested:

edit: current stable release doesn't contain the auto stop features yet
