    I’d put yt under ph, but only just. Everything else, ph paved the way. And tbf, another porn site probably cleared the way for yt, though I couldn’t tell you which one.

      I remember the first time I saw the phrase “streaming video” was a website called “teen steam” (which I desperately wanted a credit card to access) in the late 90s / early 2000s.

      I’m sure you can guess what the content of that site was and I was sure that “streaming” was some new sex act I had yet to discover and wanted very much to find out. Sadly I was too young, too poor and logged onto the Internet in the school library at lunch time so it was always going to be a long shot.
