FWIW, I just watched the 2nd at Saratoga simultaneously at YouBet and TVG (via satellite).
The picture was, of course, much better at TVG.
The YouBet picture was not up to the standards they have been raised to in recent weeks, but was not jerky just a little fuzzy. It was interesting to note that the picture deteriorated significantly after the gate opened. Up until they began loading the gate, the picture was crystal clear.
Finally, YouBet was 32 seconds behind my TVG/satellite feed.
I have actually charted some of these time differences in the past. Anecdotally speaking, I would say that YouBet is from 9-30 seconds behind via the web (on my full T1 connection), with the average just about in the middle. On very rare occasions I have seen YouBet actually 3-5 seconds ahead of TVG.
