It seems to me that this thread/poll is a lot of bluster over nothing. As I write this, 77 votes have been cast, and well over a third of them are "I dislike videos, and like articles more." You don't like the videos? Fine, DON'T WATCH THEM. No one is forcing you to do so. And Amir has never indicated that the videos would replace the written articles. He even had to state just the opposite in this overreaction of a thread!
It's obvious that
@amirm puts a lot of effort into both the written and video reviews. You do him a disservice when you question the validity of the video side of this effort.
