sounds like a feature (for them) to me. why bother showing your users new videos when they're perfectly content watching the same old videos over and over again? Better than not showing anything and them leaving your site because there's no more relevant/new videos.

Seriously. It's not like people don't rewatch things all the time. They already know you liked the video enough to sit through the whole thing and it costs them nothing to suggest it again.
