Not necessarily. With YouTube, you'll see two shades of red filling the time bar. The light red is the buffering status, and the dark red is your position in the video. Once the light red bar reaches the right side, the video has been loaded completely. You can have the video paused while loading, which means all you're doing is waiting to buffer the entire clip. If you're on a sufficiently fast connection, and the server isn't too slow, you may not even notice this happening. On DSL, I still buffer the clip in much less time than it'd take to watch it. -- Michael A.
