Absolutely.

That some features are available only on the most advanced access
technology is perfectly reasonable and to be expected, IMHO. If not,
what's the point of upgrading at all?

I lose my YouTube streams when I get handed over from 3G to 2G, too, for
example. I can live with that. I much prefer it to YouTube not working
3G as well, even though that might very well be considered a more
"consistent" user experience.
