Really cool to see a "day in the life" of someone in some profession, to get a feel for what it's really like. And it also gives you a sense for what practice looks like, and what's necessary to get good.
It's a nice way to feel part of a community, too. If there was a way to get on stream with a bunch of other people practicing, I find that more motivating to practice myself.
Indeed, this is what I miss most about not being in the office: seeing people modeling good working behavior. I find it much more motivating to have that in my immediate environment.

I wonder if "workout videos" for other domains would work to motivate people. Like, if you wanted to get motivated to work on a side project, you could pop in an hour-long video of some charismatic leader encouraging a bunch of programmers, talking to them, pumping them up, encouraging them, P90X style.
