Re:Video Throttling (Score 2, Interesting)

I do the same thing. I use an SSH tunnel through my server in Michigan (I live in Texas) and the streaming on youtube is fine. I had a sneaky suspicion they were throttling the videos. If I had a choice, I'd leave...but I don't. Since my server in Michigan has, essentially, unlimited bandwidth ( > 12 Gbit / month), I may as well do an SSH proxy all the time...
