no, no, no, not like this

Well thats completely useless. what else is next? Should we go back to 28.8k on a fiber optic line? There are several reasons why internet video will not and does not work. How many people have gone to a website watched a clip for less than five minutes then get slammed by an ad that cant be skipped and the volume is locked. Then you see another interesting clip
( notice the word clip), and bam the same netflix add in great quality, and this happens over and over...... Once the killer cycle begins there is no hope, at least the inq only diverts you to an add at about one out of hundred times. There is however one good example of how things should be done. If you take a look at pbs and npr, you will notice that about 99 percent of they're content is available online. From videos/audios of full length shows. and most in real, quicktime, flash and even wma. We all know that Youtube is a modified social network site, or deny the fact that they have a license to infringe copyrights. I am not saying its not usefull, what i am saying is that it should be broader, what if i wanted to watch pbs or stream from vlc? How long do you think it will take for youtube to cut an deal and provide ads?

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
