YouTube Sounds Better Than It Looks

I went searching for a song on the internet today, and to my surprise and delight it was on YouTube. The video I found was the original music video for the song. It became apparent that while the visual quality was good, the audio was very good.

I wonder why that is.

YouTube is obviously a good place to listen to songs you can't find anywhere else. Sometimes the visual portion isn't even from a music video, but rather an album cover. I guess sound can be more important than visuals...

Or maybe since digital music preceded videos on the net, the technology is better at sound?
