Sometimes the video is all that is available. People can’t transcript video for those with slower internet speed everytime. Most Freepers are really nice and if you ask, they can give you a summary of the video to see if it’s worth your time to go watch it.
I have FIOS which is supposedly one of the fastest connections in the country. I can download a 800mb HD Movie in 4 minutes. It’s the inefficiency of watching as opposed to reading that gets me. I much prefer written information. It’s much faster to absorb, recheck, notate, copy and paste etc etc. For internet purposes, text beats video hands down.
