My son watches a lot of Starcraft tournaments on Twitch and his immediate response was that YouTube might actually improve the infrastructure so that they could handle streaming to everyone who wants to watch.
- bdz 12y agoSure, THIS CONTENT IS UNAVAILABLE IN YOUR REGION
- Thaxll 12y agoTheir infrastructure is good enough, they're able to stream to 180k+ viewers in HD without problems.
- coralreef 12y agoGeo-wise, I believe they have issues in Europe
- smoyer 12y agoBig tournaments often refuse HD connections and revert to 720p or 480p ... it's not our Internet connection.
- addandsubtract 12y ago720p is HD though.
- winthrowe 12y agoEven if it's technically 'hd' 720p is still an ugly rescaling experience.

- bluthru 12y agoMaybe it's just me, but I associate YouTube video with buffering, overcompression, and popups.
- grrowl 12y agoYou can disable annotations (popups) on your Account Playback settings page[1]. Typically I have little problem with buffering or low quality unless I'm sharing the connection, but you can adjust the default quality settings on that page too.

- pferde 12y agoThat's only if you have an account. Some of us just like to watch an occasional video or two.
