Wondering how good video streaming is for your ISP compared to others in your area? Google's new video quality report can show you.
Head to the site and, if your area is covered yet, you'll learn whether your ISP delivers smooth high definition playback for YouTube most of the time...or not. The charts show streaming quality—lower definition (under 360p), standard definition (360p), or HD (720p)—by hour. You can also check out the stats for nearby service providers. Unfortunately, average actual streaming speeds by ISP aren't provided.
The ISPs labeled "HD Verified" offer the best/most reliable high definition YouTube streaming. As with the Netflix ISP streaming report, the data isn't broken out by service tier, but it's a big-picture view of the best (and worst) ISPs for video streaming you have access to. The site also offers tips and information about improving YouTube streaming quality.
