Agreed. Don't link video/audio unless you post a summary of it in your own words.
That's a fair point, but I've never actually seen it mentioned explicitly. Maybe there should be a 'tips on writing posts' post.
Actually, you shouldn't make any top-level post whose sole contribution is a link unless you summarize it (in the case of an argument) or explain its significance with examples (in the case of an information source like an FAQ).
It's just that this applies especially for audio and video, which have additional time-commitment and searchability constraints. I'll make a note in anything I can edit about this guideline.
I really think it's common sense though: do your homework, and respect others' patience.
