I think he's thinking in terms of artificially limiting his bandwidth
so that, even on a broadband connection, the download of a YouTube
video takes more than 20 minutes... for example:
wget --limit-rate=3600 -O tmp.flv http://youtube.com/some_video
where some video is the path to get the actual flash video data (or
something else relatively large).

I have been thinking if there was some way to artificially duplicate a
slow connection to test your theory. I have a FTP client that allows me
to throttle the data rate. I tried that, but YouTube would not let it log
in.
Does anybody have any ideas about how we could test the evil YouTube
theory?
