Youtube videos playing at reduced speed?

[haaammit]

Anyone else notice that youtube videos seem to be playing back ever-so slightly slower? More and more often I find myself playing back at 1.25 speed to get the right pitch/speed of the voices. The cynic in me thinks this is so youtube can stick more ads in!

Anyone else noticed this, or is it just me?

No background tasks or viruses etc. It's really subtle, and I wonder if @PaulM is right, I'm just so used to watching at 1.25 speed that anything else just sounds slow. One channel I regularly watch is a guy called JaWoodle, he's always talked fast it it seemed his recent videos have been a touch slowed down. Some of his earlier video intros have most certainly been reduced in speed.
