Did you ever notice how most video sites are basically elaborate systems that keep you from watching the actual video? YouTube is one of the few exceptions. All other sites do streaming and all kinds of other crap so that the only way you can actually see the video is with an offline download, and only any offline downloader, but the latest version of one specifically designed to hack through the video website and force it to actually let you download the video. These sites would be a lot better on the users if they just went back to the old fashioned method of letting people download them in the first place instead of streaming crap that never works unless you like watching a video 3 seconds at a time, 15 seconds to load, then 3 more seconds of video, then 15 more seconds of loading, and then if you try to rewind or pause, the whole thing is lost and must be reloaded from start.


This is why we can't have nice things.
