fifth post -videos online

The possibilities of online video are fantastic but I just can't get excited about the existing delivery.  The tiny screen, poor resolution and hopelessly slow download rate leave me frustrated.  It's like standing in a 15 minute queue  for a Macdonalds burger.  Give me a higher resolution still image and an interesting read any time. 

Overly complex web site downloads and video being offered as standard delivery just add to the general obesity of the web and further disadvantage those with simple computers and slower download times.  Where's the equity of access in that?
