Avoiding the DMCA issues (unfortunately as said before, its a broken law and YouTube has to act like a dick because of what it dictates) YouTube still has other problems in usability that has come up recently.

My biggest gripe is that "Whats Related" on the side bar AND at the end of the video no longer shows ratings anymore. Far too often I've clicked on a video thats just spam with lots of views, but if I saw its 1 starred rating I could have avoided it.

Google paid alot of money for the site, and its still burning through money unless things have changed recently through the extra advertising I imagine they are worried more about making the site finally turn a profit. YouTube got popular fast because honestly it had lots of stuff that it should not have had in the first place (Napster syndrome?) but once they got rid of it all, it became a site with a very low signal to noise ratio. Clearly, there is still good material left as evidenced by the sift here but finding it can be a pain in the ass.

Probably a good reason to say why I look around here alot more than just randomly browsing YouTube.
