Using occam's razor I'd guesstimate the causes to be

a) the same as I said earlier

b) youtube's servers running out of steam.

By the way - youtube probably caches the first few k, in order to get
your 'experience' started quicker.

No need to invoke conspiracy theories about VM deliberately choking
anything.

a lot of others on other ISP's without the name Virgin in them.

Are you implying that it's only customers of Virgin that ever get slowdown
on youtube?

Once again YOU are caught lying....you never killfiled me,you just
pretended to so as to avoid answering some question i put.

PS: It's generally regarded as a good idea to remember what you've posted
earlier.

The stupid duck deserves what he gets.

As for my speed test results, I regularly post these and they are
readily authenticable.

None of the Virgin apologists has ever posted an authentic speed test
result that matches their claims. Pictures of screenshots DON'T count.
They could be anyone's.
