Why must you load videos so slowly? It's not my internet connection. Everything else loads super fast and I can check out other video sites with much success. But it shouldn't take 20 minutes to finish loading a 10 minute video you piece of **** site.

Sounds like your ISP is limiting YouTube.

Yeah, don't hate on YouTube. It's not their fault.

Comcast is particularly evil about throttling certain kinds of traffic.

Not that I would ever want to deny someone a nice rant, but I think your disdain is misguided here. :p

Nope. It's Youtube's fault. Because I say it is. I **** hate you, Youtube!

(The real reason being is that I can watch some videos on youtube without it being slow as balls. But as soon as I try to watch a Starcraft 2 shoutcast video, youtube wants to be an ******* and makes it slow down.)

Maybe if your ISP is throttling the bandwidth you can try a Proxy? I don't have much experience with proxies but it sounds like it is worth trying.
