You are right, there is something wrong with the video streaming right now. Usually it is very quick and I watch them ion hi-res instantly. I live in the seattle area and have Comcasts premium internet which is the fastest privatly available in our area.
Just today I tried to go and do some lessons and the video is really slow. It will play for a few seconds, then stop for about 30 sec, then pick up for a few seconds then stop again..etc. If I stop it and let the loading bar go all the way up, then play it. the video stops about 1/3 thru totally. I dont know what is up, this is the first time it's happened since Ive been using the site.
I tried a dozen different videos in different lessons and such with the same issue. Again, I dont know what is up right now, but this isnt normal and will hopefully be fixed soon. I need my fix :)
