Is Youtube running out of bandwidth?

Sometimes it's fast as fuck, and the video loads all the way within a few seconds. But most of the time it can't even fucking play a 2 minute video without needing to hit the pause button and waiting for over 5 fucking minutes for it to load. I'm on a 25 megabit fiber connection so the problem isn't here.

It's like I'm watching with a fucking 2400 baud modem or something.

What the hell is up with Youtube? Doesn't Google have the most epic datacenters around? Or are even the most epic datacenters not enough to handle the load?
