Ok so i am here in Shanghai and as everyone knows that China has banned Youtube..it has not stopped here. Google video, metacafe all these are also banned. I mean these sites refuse to open. Even the youtube links i find on this website dont show up. 
What other online video websites do i have that i can try accessing. Moreover can anyone suggest me websites to watch Indian channels. I know idesitv for sure but any other options ?
Youtube used to be good, not any longer if you want real HD stuff.
Try dailymotion, veoh etc.
If you still want to access YT, try using a VPN service.
you could try vimeo. stage6 used to be an excellent site until they had to shut it down 
banned in China… :O… I didn’t know tht, thats bad :(…
but y is it banned in china
reason?
bcoz they have videos which show the exploitation of Chinese govt on Tibet issues and Tibet people. I think so..had read somewhere.
Moreover i suppose China and Hongkong also dont get well..why…because dealextreme also does not open here 
If you have a windows PC , USe HotSpot VPN , its a free service , will give you an American IP , you should be able to access youtube
