I mean, there are probably people who buy DVDs of gymnastics events to get their jollies on it. Even in the VHS days, there were pros that would video competitions for parents and kids to buy if they wanted. It's not a new idea, the medium is just new.

Those same parents might take a different view of the pro assembling an edited lowlights tape.

Which seems very close to crosslinking comments with timestamps on fully public videos, with advertising.
