You need to look at the HTTP requests and replies - begin by
enabling MIME logging. Then you need to learn a little about how
refresh_patterns and cache (which was once no_cache) work in
limiting what can and can't be cached.

Then there's probably some modifications that Squid needs - specifically
floating about supporting caching partial Range Request responses.

Funny you should mention it, I'm building a commercial Squid appliance right
at the moment which, amongst other things (like out of the box functional
interception/WCCPv2 support, anti-spyware/malware filtering, black/whitelists,
web-based User/ACL management, some useful reporting output, etc.) will
include stuff to begin caching sites like Youtube and Google Maps/Earth.
Its tricky to do right and things will need changing/adapting over time.
What worked yesterday might not work so well tomorrow..
