"other sites" are usually run by other people, from other parts of the 
world. Differences are normal. All this shows is that it is unlikely to 
be Squids fault.

redbot.org reports quite a large number of problems on that website. The 
major ones seem to be ETag headers not changing when the object they 
refer to changes. And requests for ranges of some binary objects 
returning portions of completely different objects.
There also seems to be quite a lot of fluctuation in the server clock 
values (about 20 minutes randomly changing server clock time, over an 
actual 5 second load time). This woud have a bad affect on any streaming 
video which is time sensitive.
This site shows strong signs of being servered by a cluster which has 
broken NTP and HTTP ETag content synchronisation.
I only could test the public pagees. The videos are locked behind some 
unfriendly Swedish-only policy.
