When I'm on my phone, YouTube videos don't show up. So I'm definitely a fan of some explanation. Also, even when I'm on a computer I don't just go around clicking every YouTube video anyone posts, I need some reason to check it out. Some kind of comment about it goes a long way toward piquing my interest.

I like the music reviews, the discussion, and the banter on here too. But what I like more, much more, is listening to music. A great artist that I've never heard before in a youtube vid post is worth more to me than a hundred articulate reviews or intelligent music discussions.

^ agree
When I'm using my tablet, instead of PC, it really helps if there wad a band/song title (or movie clip title) that I could to look it up if I wanted to.

Half the time I visit MB from work, where YT is blocked.
I'm obviously not saying everybody should change how they post because of me (**** me), but it's the main reason I agree with OH's opinion.

This. If I want to watch a video someone posts when I'm on mobile, I have to quote the post and type in the link.

You're a prophet, my son. Apart from the bit about his post being deleted, everything else you said has come to pass. I must follow you and do your bidding!

By now i have a general idea of the music taste ppl have around here so i don't really need a description for every vid they post although sometimes seeing a short simple description on why they like it can motivate me to watch it too.

I'll tell ya what i do dislike, i dislike half assed OP for threads that only have a youtube video to explain the damn thread, that or when the OP feels lazily written and vague.
