Personally, i rarely watch streaming video. i find that it is, for
the most part, useless and just takes up bandwidth.
They way i figure it is, if you are at your computer, listening to
audio, you most likely doing something else at the same time- and
not watching the stream. We have some broadcasters who use video,
but thier audience is largely made up of local fans, and friends. I
think it can sometimes give the listener an inside look at what's
going on (goofing off, bong rips, drunken sillyness, or it can just
be boring) -
Another one of our broadcasts streams the live video mixing done by
a talented production house in glasgow. That is def. interesting to
watch it you have a decent connection.
Also- I don't see it as piracy- Whenever we broadcast from a live
event we use contracts between selekta and the djs (as do most
streaming sites) - unless of course you are referring to the people
who actually make the tracks..thats a different conv. all together.
I do think that people would be more willing to peek at a large
event's streaming video (i.e. demf) - but, when i tuned into demf,
i lost my patience with the video very quickly. Which is also why
i'm an advocate for interactive broadcasts, with scheduled
interviews/updates.
