Yep, I agree: not the real thing.
What ought to be good for free video content is probably a torrent-based
site, where the bandwidth burden is largely born by the users. That
would be much more stable than relying on revenue-based systems to
compensate the "big server" model costs.
Several people have mentioned better video sites on this list.
Cheers,
