[sdiy] OT: Annoying gap removal

[MTG]

Thursday rant. Anyone else noticed the tendency to remove gaps (breaths) 
from audio/radio content or online videos?  Someone is going through the 
content, say a commercial or a how-to-video, and cutting out all the 
little natural gaps in the speech 
makingthewholethingonelongracetothefinish. Makes me crazy.

I watched an Embarcadero (remember Borland?) how-to video yesterday and 
it's impossible to follow all the little details because the cuts are so 
quick. So instead of sitting back and listening you have to pause and 
rewind in order for the subtleties to sink in.
