Why the hell are all the music videos on Youtube in high-definition?

Takes me half an hour to load them cause they're in 480p or higher.

Get better internet xD
Or a new computer xD

There's this thing called being poor.

You should try it, it's a very humbling experience.

You serious? You know you can lower the resolution. Wow.

480 is as low as the ones I want go.

How big is 480p? All videos go down to low-definition 320x240.
