well yes i have noticed that and i know it because of the users using it. Well you cant really blame youtube about it because there are more than a million using that site.

YouTube has way more users accessing their servers at one time, so their videos take longer to load. Thats the reason why.

thats easy it takes longer for youtube because it has more users and it slows the server
