AsK HN: Why do Kickstarter videos take so long to load?
When visiting different Kickstarter pages, why is it that their videos take so long to load? What backend video system are they using that creates this long of a buffering problem?
I'm asking because I'm looking to avoid these sort of problems with my project (curating custom band videos on a page).

Do you have a link to a page that loads slow? I'm not familiar with too many of the KS projects but, by memory, I don't recall any having slow videos.
Also, why ask us instead of asking them?
