YouTube Lowering Video Quality To Allow You To Keep Streaming

By Wes Styles Mar 26, 2020 | 7:28 AM

Wednesday Netflix outages in the U.S. and Europe. Not surprises really, they probably haven’t seen such a flux of viewership at one time.

YouTube is trying to hold off outages and buffering by lowering the video quality from HD to Standard (We know WHAT A CRIME!). You can still switch it back to HD, unless you’re in Europe because they are stuck with low-def.

We’re all in this together and can get through Standard or DVD quality video knowing everyone is safe, right? Right?
