While I've long enjoyed Sick Joey's/Kitt5000's posts, I tend to agree. Short video clips with lengthy unrelated title sequences get annoying after a while. And even though I'm not on dialup anymore, I still remember when I was and how I couldn't begin to preview a video I was downloading (to see if I wanted to continue downloading it to the end) when it took 5 or 10 minutes just to download someone's fancy title sequence before the actual video I was trying to judge began.

Nothing wrong with a short title, or even a long title at the end, IMHO. Just my 2-and-a-half cents (inflation, you know )
