Watching "films" on Youtube is like listening to opera via the telephone. -
Not more, not less.

Remind me again the purpose of putting out the Brakhage DVD sets?
Watching those on a tv screen it seems to me is not
entirely
different than watching a streaming video full-screen on a computer
screen (in a darkened room with distractions eliminated).
I think there are many who get/got something from those sets and to
me the effectiveness of those sets opened the door.
No one is saying that it is a "substitute" for watching it in a movie
theater any more than listening to the Art Of The Fugue on a stereo
is a substitute for a live performance.
