I've had my Droid now for about a month and I've realized, YouTube is horrible.
Whether I'm running on the 3G or on my home wireless, YouTube videos take forever to buffer, then when they finally start playing, so little has buffered and they continue to load so slowly, after 30 seconds of video it stops and will not continue loading.
I've tried pausing the video as soon as it starts to play, to let it fully buffer, but it will not continue to load/buffer while the video is paused.
I've used my friends' phones (Sprint, AT&T) and they have none of these problems. Is this a problem with the phone, the service, or something else I'm missing?
Why wont the videos fully load when paused?
Isn't this a google phone? Doesn't google own YouTube? Why would the service be great on other phones but horrible on a google phone?
It makes no sense. Hopefully there's just something I'm missing and this can be easily fixed.
EDIT: I forgot to mention, everything I've said is pertaining more to the HQ version of videos, not so much the standard ones.
