What the hell, Youtube?

I've had a video uploading now to Youtube for the past half hour and it's still not done. It's a 276 MB .mov file (Quicktime) and I've been stuck at the uploading page now for so damn long I'm wondering if anything's getting done. I realize the file is pretty large, but still. Is this normal?

From YouTube's Upload Page:
"Uploads usually take 1-5 minutes per MB on a high-speed connection, and converting your video takes a few minutes."

Worst case scenario: 276 x 5 = 1380 minutes.
Best case scenario: 276 x 1 = 276 minutes.

Yeah, video eventually went through after about an hour or two. Guess my connection's faster than I thought.

I've always noticed YouTube goes really slow. But what're ya gonna do? It's free. haha.
