Someone once said “Good video with bad audio is worthless, but bad video with good audio still works.” I’m paraphrasing here, but it’s so true.  One reason that Youtube originally thrived, much to the dismay of broadcast engineers, was that the audio was pretty good, even though the early video was often fuzzy, blocky and off-color. It was acceptable because the audio sounded decent. There’s nothing worse than noisy, hollow or distant audio on a beautiful video clip.
