I can go either way, although I prefer having Jeff's visage there, even if it's just on the second screen as I listen while I work.

If it has to be one or the other, I have to say Video.

However, I'd like both because sometimes I just listen to it and sometimes I watch it but mostly still listen.

I generally put these on a 2nd screen and listen to it like a podcast. But it's nice to have video too.

Since you are redesigning to have both podcast versions on the same page anyway, why not do that with Jar time and have both video and audio? I do prefer the video option of something when it's available.

Having the audio in a feed for these would be cool, but I wouldn't want to lose the video version.

Also while you have them you should do a Ranking of Madden. Rank them on aspects like the intro, menus and music; not actually playing Madden.

If it is either video OR audio, I prefer the video.

I like having the atmosphere of your home office for jar time.

I would love to see an audio version, even if you just dump it into the premium feed.

EDIT: Please make sure to include exaggerated drinking noises to retain the 'Jar Time' atmosphere.

I would prefer Jar Time be both video and audio, but if I had to choose I would pick video.

I'd love an audio version. I pretty much play Jar Time in the background while I do other stuff so having it in a podcast app would be ideal!

Euro dollars is a Dan thing.

I basically just listen instead of watch anyway, so I'd prefer audio.

I've always enjoyed watching these! Without video there can't be a jar! But yeah I like the video format of these. Always felt kind of like state of the union videos for Giant Bomb.

personally I prefer a video version as I have more than enough podcasts to catch up let alone listen to, but I understand people wanting that for more convenience. For me having something visual even if not much is happening, I find I will watch it first unless I am not home.

I much prefer video, but I would be down for an audio version as well.

I have thought about the idea of getting rid of some of my collection in the past, but I just can't do it. My biggest problem right now it I feel it is outgrowing the room I put it all in, but I plan to build shelving to alleviate it.

A lot of what I have I have been starting to make sure good scans of exist, info from the manuals ect. for the wiki and such. I also usually try and play the original games on the original hardware when I can to try and make sure info is as accurate as possible.

Seeing all the cool promo/press/review stuff is super interesting to me. As someone who lives in Alaska that stuff literally never shows up anywhere, so I always find it cool to check it out.
