Stop wasting your time and bandwidth watching videos from any source. You get 10x the information per minute by reading. Video is for illiterates.

I wholeheartedly agree. I skip videos whenever I can. I want to read!

How am I supposed watch “Cheap Trick Live at Budokan?” Or Nobuyku Tsujii, the blind pianist from Japan. I listen to him play Rachmaninov’s Piano Concertos #2 and #3 every Thursday. If hearing and seeing a blind dude play that doesn’t inspire you, nothing will.

Amen! 20 minutes of blather for 30 seconds of actual information, and more often than not, that information doesn't actually answer the question in the title teaser.

Or for novices working on their own cars who need to be shown what to do,and some of us just like to watch and listen to cars we could never hope to own be driven, or watch historical trains roll through the countryside... Most reside in Wyoming, and I don’t live there.

There are many applications for videos.

It’s hard to multitask while reading. How am I going to keep up with my conspiracy theories if I can’t run the videos while doing yard work?
