Agreed. I can't stand watching/listening people talk online in general: interviews, podcasts, lectures whatever. It always feels like enormous waste of time: I'd rather quickly scan the text of what they're saying, slowing down on important things and "fast-forwarding" water.

And in an academic world that is growing to embrace free culture, you will only need one great lectures on each chunk of material. In fact, it is best in some cases for everyone to have enjoyed the same bit of greatness, because they can all draw similar references and allusions later. Not always, or even most of the time, mind you, but there are some lectures that are definitely worth watching.
