I Am Not Watching Your Videos

     I do not watch your marketing videos. I do not like my email, or websites speaking to me unless I ask them to. When I am online I intentionally have my computer on mute 99% of the time. I really find it annoying to be surfing along trying read something, and then suddenly someone starts to blab advertisements to me. As a matter of fact verbal advertisements will send me to that X button quicker than lightning.

    Most of the video content is the same old crap and way too long, also. They all start the same 20 minutes about how they guy is living in the dumpster and now he is making millions. This guy  is making his millions selling you his secret strategy.

   The reason I bring this up, is because I see more and more websites using nothing but videos. Really these videos remind of the stuff that is on TV every Sunday. Bottom Line people want to be entertained by videos. If you must do one, wear a chicken suit or something and make it last only 5 minutes. These are  the kind of videos that are truly viral.

By the way, I will watch and listen to 80's rock videos on youtube because they are entertaining and I requested to see them.

   I am curious to find out if others feel this way.
