Hit pause. It will do what you just described then.
You don't usually get to see how far it has buffered however. Youtube does show you by a gray bar.

With peering to ISPs it isn't about equal traffic in both directions, that is more when Tier 1 companies peer.
ISPs usually peer because it is cheaper and/or faster than paying to send the same traffic over the regular internet.
Over here in Australia most ISPs peer with PIPE. PIPE does not provide any internet access, just traffic between peers.
The ISPs consequently get nearly free data from Google, Akamai, etc... just by setting up the one peering connection which is unlimited.
Erm yes they did pay it for everyone. For the MPEG LA patent pool at least.

"allowing the company to sublicense the described techniques it to any VP8 user on a royalty-free basis"
Erm Google paid the fee SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO.
They didn't pay just for themselves.
Alpha channel video sounds fun. As does depth channel video.
I don't have a clue what people will do with it, but both are very very cool features that make it not yet another video codec.
Got a citation for VP9 not being better or equal to h.265?
I'm genuinely curious why you think that way.
GCHQ has access to the NSA's data. It would make sense that the NSA would have access to GCHQ's data.
Or a dirt cheap web cam. Either way works.
Not really 'ignorant bullshit'. Yes they are still making a profit and I never said anything to counter that.
However I was referring to the fact desktop sales are down by 5.4% from 2012 and laptops are down 12.1%.

Because no one wants to buy a computer with Windows 8 on it.
So Microsoft is losing the console wars and has nothing left to fall back to any more.
And what is more offensive is that they aren't even denying spying on all the US's allies.
As an Aussie, Obama didn't say anything to try and make us feel better. In fact he confirmed everything that we didn't want to be true.
A requirement of 51% 'foreignness'? I will always show up as 100% foreign.
Where can I find this patch? I love having the best speed possible on my servers so I'll definitely apply this one asap.
Really bad example. No one alive can tell the difference between 60 FPS and 75 FPS.
Just lots of people who think they can.
Shock. You are telling me that they oversimplified a topic like computer power consumption?
Operating system comparison would provide significantly higher power usage differences.
As would the presence or absence of Flash and ad blockers.
Hell chances are there would be significant differences depending on if the laptop was switched on 30 seconds previously to an hour previously.
Harder to block the mic as well. Far more suspicious if both the lens is accidentally obscured and the mic is damaged.
The earth is like a tiny grain of sand, only much, much heavier.
