Yeah they have renewed everything a while ago. I just dont like the page being all in white and comments dont have any borders around them or seperators.

Crashes ? I've never seen YouTube crashing... Is that somehow 'connection related' ?

I never had Youtube player crash. And my hardware isn't brand new.

As for the thing you're talking about Raficoo, it has been fixed for over a year now ...

yeah such a cool new player, videos look better in 1080p with that interface...but the rating and comment system is rubbish, google thinks youtube is a social networking site.. the comment system is a gay twitter ripoff, and the ratings well i hate it, you cant find good from bad videos anymore, like and dislike??? seriously what were they thinking at least show us some numbers..one of youtubes best feature was the the simple comments and rating layout, now it looks like it was made by a 5 year old, they basically are attempting to fix what is not broken in the first place..
