I find it inefficient to have an entire film download in the background when a user may close up at the 10 min mark. Either optimized download speed, or on-demand live streaming would be a better idea.
Maybe there's a technical solution that could be developed by a startup in the issue - reduces YT's total upload amount, and saves money on both sides.
