This reminds me of Google search rankings historically(?) favouring sites which loaded quicker. Stories at the time (5-10+ years ago?) reported this to be evident at surprisingly small limits - people not waiting less than a second. I'm not surprised it's a similar tale with video delivery. In my experience, what frustrated me most was predictable stalls every 10s or so. I don't see that much any more.
