Yes. I was annoyed when they removed the 'Videos watched-' count on your profile, and then everything seemed to go downhill from there. I also getting fed up of the 20+ second ad's that plague the beginning of the videos.
On a positive note though, I like the Auto-play feature.

What is the point of having a youtube account anyway? I use it to watch some game/hardware reviews thats about it.
Whats the advantage of having an account?

oh yeh facebook is bad, everytime I log in it's totaly different. Can't even find my wall now, gave up using it regularly and just use it to snoop on people's lives once every 6 months.

I can't believe they've got rid of the star rating
The whole thing is a mess now, what were they thinking, really?

Not to bothered about that, I only 1* or 5* anyway. I didn't really see how you could rate a video anything else, you either liked it or you didn't.

Most people are retarded.
I really like the new video layout. And the thumbs up/down system is better than the star rating imo. The profile pages were better before though.
Also I dont blame them for trying to save bandwidth, I mean videos use a lot of bandwidth, which ads cant neccessarily cover - especially as theyve removed in-video ads and also more and more people are using adblock.

To elaborate on my point, what I mean is: the average length of a youtube video is say 3-5 minutes. I'll watch about 15-20 videos in anyone visit to my subscription page, which range from tech reviews, game trailers, blogs, unboxings, gameplay+ commentary videos, music vidoes, tv...the list goes on. I just didn't think the five star rating system did this variety justice, you cant judge one video against the other.
Im not retarded, honestly
