Is it just me or since YouTube got taken over have all the videos been slow? e.g. pausing every 5 seconds?

I dunno if theres a connection but there seems to be and its annoying :@ When I listen to a music video I have to let it play on silent so that I can then re-play it (when its loaded) without all the breaks every 10 seconds or so.

It cant be my internet connection because it was fine before and its not just on one PC cos I've tried it on all 4

No. It has been happening but since before Google took over.

Plus, the takeover would have no bearing on performance. It's still run by the exact same people in the exact same way - it's just that Google owns it now.

although it could be an increase on traffic due to the advertising on tv. :P

The problem is, the video is going faster then it is loading. When you click to view a video, click pause, and slowly, a dark red bar will move where the circle is (the circle that shows how long the video is). If you wait for that to move a bit first, then click view, it works without interuptions :)

Or, should do.

I haven't noticed a difference =S Mind you my internet connection isn't the best in the world. My advice - never go for local cheap and nasty broadband.
