По его мнению, YouTube и аналогичные системы, напрямую доставляющие видео-контент пользователям, принципиально пока не способны заменить реальные теле- и т.п. каналы, транслирующие видео-ролики. Главная проблема этих систем – отсутствие адекватного «среднего звена» (автор блога предлагает называть их дилерами), того или тех либо программ, либо людей и их коллективов, которые будут среди всего предлагаемого сайтом моря видео-информации отбирать всё самое, по их мнению, заслуживающее внимания; без этого звена любой медиа-архив со временем превращается в информационную «помойку». Частично функцию «дилеров» выполняют считанные по пальцам рук видео-блоги наподобие самого Shots Ring Out и некоторые интернет-сообщества – но их слишком мало и в целом они неэффективны. На это блог 30 frames уже традиционно ему возражает, считая, что появление таких «дилеров» – дело ближайшего будущего, связанного с бурным развитием технологий веб-видео.

I think, however, I went like two days later for my birthday. I don’t see how the helps with my inability to bring Brick to the unknowing public. Maybe if I was a dealer they would listen.

You could have helped us recommend it to an indecisive Kevin Smith in the lobby. I did neglect the whole iTunes angle here, mostly because numbers from Apple are vague at best. I'm guessing their music video sales are not quite up there with the TV shows (or movies, even). Half price would be a start.

Yes your <i>tastes </i>are bomb. That is why people come here but people’s taste in general, suck. Hence the not so new MTV and the diabolic shows it puts out. I face a similar problem every time I talk about <i>Brick</i>. I could show people the film but the best response I would ever get would be “It’s interesting.” Mainly because they don’t understand the complexity of the film and how badass it really is. So, what is the end goal? To become popular enough to get everyone who should watch cool music videos to watch them but not big enough to get everyone to watch them? Or B.

We readers can find these videos on our own if we wanted to, but we come to SRO as consumers of your "taste" in music videos. That's also why your holiday gift guide was such a hit - we agree in your taste in music & music videos, and so it's only natural that that taste translates into excellent taste in material goodies too. [Shit now the word "taste" looks mega weird.] Keep up the good work! I agree.
