You could always take a swfdec port to C# (not sure if one is written) or do a [DllImport] of the libswdec.so. I know libswdec can run youtube videos.

That's a little to generally speaking. First of it is a matter of
connection speed.
When you have a full Mbit of downstream there mostly is no lagging. That
being said - you are right that it makes near to zero sense for people
having a ISDN or so connection.
So let's assume you have a decend connection - there will probably be 2
problems:
1. The video edit is different from the song's music. This is quite
common - but like I mentioned earlier - I think this is not that much of
a problem (at least for me it's fine ;) ).
2. You really have a lag with your connection - which means the video
stops till it has a synced frame again. Also it should do precaching
similar to the youtube site.

Which brings me to a whole other point - is there yet any free library
that supports youtube's video streaming? The last I heard is that it's
not implemented (latest flash video streaming I mean).

Did you recognize that this is one of the longest discussions lately ;) SCNR
