Or are you saying that being here is a waste of time and you'd rather watch videos, in that case why are you here? Why not just visit Youtube & stay there instead?
Oh snap I just noticed this.
I'll answer each of your questions. Here's what I'm trying to say:

1) I don't need a larger quantity of good posts, I just ignore the bullshitty ones anyway. There are a lot of good posts on MB all the time. I'd vote No because I also like the only-video posts.

2) No, MB isn't a waste of my time. Like I said above, there's usually plenty of good / fun / informative posts on MB. I just happen to also like watching videos. I don't need commentary on all of them. And if I like a song I see in a video, I can look up its metadata on my own. In fact, I enjoy doing that because I may end up learning more than I will by reading the accompanying commentary posted on MB.

3) No, I'm not saying MB is a waste of my time. Why else would I keep reading it? I'm here because I like MB.

4) I do visit Youtube quite a bit and I don't see why I should choose between that and MB. Often MB leads me there - and then I spend a lot of time there just listening to / watching stuff. I'm not going to choose a favorite and 'stay there' - that makes no sense to me.

Good enough?
