Just watching a Google video of Richard Glover at Mosman library. Interestingly, this video has not stopped once, since I started watching it. A lot better than the YouTube video, that stopped about every 30 seconds or so to download a bit more.
However, the price paid for a non-stop video stream seems to be the video resolution.
So Richard's face is a bit blurry, his lips don't always keep up with the sound of his voice, and it looks a bit low-qual, compared to the rest of the site.
I guess we need to strike a balance between video continuity & quality over a typical internet connection.
A "typical connection"? I heard on the radio the other day that 80% of Australian internet users have broadband connections at home now, so I guess these data speed problems are gradually becoming less of an issue. But what about the battler who can't afford broadband?
