Does Online Video Make Retailers Cooler Somehow?
from the help-me-out-here dept
Last week we wrote skeptically about Amazon's latest plan to have an online talk show that sounded like a thinly veiled (if veiled at all) attempt to get people to watch commercials disguised as interviews. Today comes the news that Wal-Mart, in an attempt to make itself seem "trendier" is going to launch its own special online videos that will include music acts performing as well as being interviewed. Apparently, today's retailers think that having musicians talk about their music in an online video that no one will watch is the way to make yourself trendy.

Plus, i'm not sure if everyone knows this, but you'd have to have a fairly good computer to watch these things, something that a lot of people do not have.
