The rite of the Holy Father himself

Catholic World News.com tells us:
Pope Benedict XVI, who recently issued a motu proprio allowing all Catholic priests to celebrate the old Latin Mass, uses the older ritual himself for his private Mass, CWN has learned. Informed sources at the Vatican have confirmed reports that the Holy Father regularly celebrates Mass using the 1962 Roman Missal.
There is a YouTube video circulating, showing him celebrating the Novus Ordo, in Italian. I do hope CWN has got it right.
