YouTube was pretty reliable - until now. Nowadays I frequently get the following error message for videos: “We’re sorry, this video is no longer available”.
Now this error message used to come for videos that had been removed from YouTube either by the uploader or the web site itself. But now it comes even for valid videos.
There is a fix for this (courtesy http://www.marcforrest.com/). For any video that gives such an error, append one of the following to the URL (in the browser's address bar)
E.g.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AODycP1Y24M&feature=related
would become
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AODycP1Y24M&feature=related&fmt=6
