It could be YouTube, or it could be your ISP "shaping" the traffic. You can use Glasnost (http://broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparency/bttest-mlab.php) to test the latter.

Similarly awful is (usually) my youtube experience over DSL :(

However: just now watching eyepatchentertainment's test broadcast I find it remarkable. Sharp picture. Perfectly synced sound. Smooth scroll of live comments. Unknown fps, but it has no jerkiness to video.

I worry for what this will do re" jacquesm's ww.com.

Looks like youtube-live will be setting the standard for streaming vid.
