Yes we are strange creatures. Much that we do is highly irrational in the eyes of others. I spend a lot of time watching videos about all sorts of things but I am very intolerant of music unless it really is "background" and very quiet, or...

People who don’t watch videos on principle are in the same position as those who don’t view Facebook/Twitter, TV-news, certain newspapers etc. on principle. That’s fine but if these are an organisation’s favoured news-outlet methods such people...
