Take this for what it's worth; as I sit here, I haven't watched any of the videos yet. That sort of leads to my point though. The lead item is an interview with Jonathan Schwartz, Sun CEO. I'm interested in that, but I don't know that I want to devote 35 minutes to it in front of my PC. If it were audio, I'd simply push it to my iPod and listen to it during my next workout.
Some of the items are video oriented; the walk around with Thomas Hawk, for instance. But the interview, and the language war thing - I'd much rather have those as audio. I can listen to audio without my full attention, but that's simply not the case with video. Of the eight things he has, I'd say that five of them would go to audio easily (and be more useful that way, IMHO - but I realize that people might disagree).
I'll probably watch some of them; I just wish there were an audio only option. Maybe Scoble could do that as well? Strip out the audio to an mp3 file, and give us options? I'd prefer audio, some other people will prefer video.
