@Ryan, the main advantage is that you don’t have to loop through your JSON result to construct HTML – not that its hard to do, but just cuts out another step. Also HTML to JSON is some what lossy (read: http://developer.yahoo.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=649). Using JSONP-X keeps the HTML structure you want entirely intact when using this type of JSON payload.

Great work, I have been using format=json&callback=callback on my YQL query for sometime now what advantage does this new way have?
