    YouTube is such a large service, we use it without knowing we do. With embedded videos on websites, with so many things , audio is on their. It’s just a large service, and it’s ran by powerful Google.

    The other great thing about watching videos on YouTube is that you can watch them over and over again. This is especially helpful for learning something. You can pause and even skip ahead to wherever you want.

    There are too many ads in you tube and that’s why it makes the site hard to navigate and to load. You tube should really pick the right video that has the copyright of the owner. This is really a big issue for a long time.

    If the Above Problem is Fixed it’ll Really help the Site to Grow Much much Bigger!!

    Youtube should also consider on video share because if it allows users to share long video then it will be threat for music piracy
