vv That was kind of the point I was trying to make with my post, the 
Reggie Watts story etc.: I couldn't help but think "man, if I show you 
guys a loop video I did, and get the same kind of responses, I'd not wanna 
post a video again" one thing is teenagers on youtube bashing whatever 
whenever. Another thing is when it comes from more reliable sources. But 
back to my point: it's about personal taste. So I'm not being critical 
about ambient music, I'm saying if I was, it'd be the same thing as if I 
was being (overly) critical of this youtube guy. And for both matters, 
there is a place and an audience, and neither you ambient looping stuff or 
that guy is better than the other in it's basic form, it's just two 
different ways of approaching music and entertainment.
