The reasons they are done like that are as follows....

1. I find it better to read and watch rather than listen and watch because more often than not, you're either watching and not listening, or listening and not watching...
2. With text/subtitles, you can pause the video and the narration does not stop !
3. Not everyone has xMB broadband, therefore producing video which is still viewable on a narrowband link is better for all.
4. Do you really want to hear me banging about with cases, etc... which I find very annoying on the 'other' videos

and part 5 will come sooner or later, but it's only putting a diff together...which they don't show either :D

And guessworks using the two together is a good balance, I find it easier to learn by watching videos, but sometimes you need to read about it to learn.

it wasn't a criticism. more of making it more modern. i could probably record better quality on my phone thats all and quality wise although the text is a good idea a mixture and both & 720 is min these days being 2012.
