From my perspective, we have had a video camera since my 16 year old

daughter was 2. I can remember watching the videos twice. Not that I don't think they are modern family heirlooms -- I do -- but I don't revisit them often. I don't know whether I am typical, or an extreme example. Add to the mix the fact that these video tapes play on the TV, designed and placed for group watching while the QuickTime stuff mostly plays on the small screen of a computer, designed and placed for individual use.


Aha, but that is only true if you:

1) fail to burn the DVD that you can
   a) send to all your relatives as "gifts."
   b) play in your DVD player connected to your "Big Screen"
2) do not jack your iMac into your "Big Screen" and Stereo
