I don't why that is,,, I am on pretty fast DSL upwards of 800 kbs and is did lots of jerking and skipping aorund...I just shut it down and won't go back till they get more Band space so it can handle the traffic better. So it can be "Video Streamed" better. I don't have any problem with other types of streams but that one was just too hard to watch. And I have all the Macromedia Flash add ons also and still was hard to watch. I have Windows Media Player I have Real Video , and I also have the Apple one called QuickTime all installed and still having to watch something like Uff Da ..
