I would say the improvement allowed the demand to be met, everybody wanted to use youtube, but few could.

Just like many people may want to eat a wide range of expensive tasty food, but have to make do with junk because it's what they can afford.

There wasn't an error in the conclusions of the initial measuremen. It was the solution that had problems.
