Also average listener should be narrowed down to women only, that's your average listeners.
All those videos full of tits and what not are not aimed at guys, it's for women, to boost their self esteem and to encourage them to value themselves even more.
Every women watching those videos day dream that they're those ass shaking, tits flashing "ladies", 10 years old girl listening to Iglesias interprets it, that's all right that some 30 something years old dude on internet want to lick her, she even encourages him to show her how bad he wants it.
On a serious note, women are the ones who're getting off the most from those mentioned videos, really.

So does average woman care if it's analog?
Yes!

and yes those videos are not for guys, really. None of you'll get it, though, but one day you might understand it.
What the actual, everliving, motherloving f**k are you on about? Do you think women enjoy being sexualised constantly in places that, you know, aren't the flipping bedroom? Whenever I see footage of parties where the girls are being held aloft and are dancing, you can see their thought processes when they realise the camera is trained on them... "the male gaze is upon me, I had better try and act sexy... *sigh*... well this is tedious, I was having much more fun just dancing without worrying about this crap".

Being a woman is primarily a visual thing, it's about being f**king perfect, to increase your market value in a world designed around men's desires. It's no coincidence that everything about being a girl involves your looks and plastering yourself with uncomfortable, toxic gender signifiers, whilst at the same time men's sex drive is primarily visual. How many men do you see wearing gender signifiers? Being male is aggressively and shamelessly "default".

And no, those tits in the youtube videos are primarily for straight men, and to increase the view count for the poster... have you actually read the comments section of youtube? Seriously? They talk about "unzipping and enjoying" as casually as you'd look out of a window and enjoy the view.

And come to think of it, how did we get from analog vs digital to woman hating without any sort of transition. It was like, the first line of your post was on topic, then suddenly "Nope, I can't hold this in any longer! I must tell the world!"

Yeah, the average human is a dressed up primate. Now we still need to connect that to "listener" and "analog". :D

Imagine there's only two women on a planet earth, men still having a sexual drive towards women, but they can reproduce themselves and all music clips with tits are imported from other planets, do you think men will prefer tits or something more of an artistic, creative nature?
Women usually are just silent about it, but they're the ones who're most into those videos,
How many women would say "I like pink floyd" or something similar and how many would say I like avicci or similar douche and to dance to it in clubs? Maybe like 95% of collage, university students, no?
How many women would prefer lyrics like in pink floyd songs or similar as opposed to lyrics describing some bimbo's love "victories and struggles" , like "I love you baby so much" "Love is everything" "let's dance all night"
put that over some sh((ty compressed to death piano chords and super saw with some beats with no low end whatsoever.
Men are just by standers, by not even realizing it, they think that they want tits and asses, but that thought is forced upon them by women themselves, so women are putting themselves in "nothing but thoughtless piece of meat" place on their own.
There are girls who dress like "ladies", who speak like "ladies" and who are true "ladies" and there are insecure vain sluts, and later is a majority, and that choice of being a slut is made by them, nobody forced it on them, by seeking attention from vain nobodies like themselves they are putting themselves in that position.

So does average woman care if it's analog?
Absolutely!, it would be a suicidal for a producer to produce with plugins and expect to get laid that way, they can tell analog from a plugin apart during 30 seconds into a song, so after 30 seconds, if you produced it with plugins, forget about getting laid.

Slut is a slut, a prick is a prick, when it comes to average listener, women are the ones who comprise majority of your average listeners, women are the ones who're getting off on those videos.
Take a look at facebook, dating sites, porn sites, it seems like they do enjoy being sluts, doesn't look like they feel uncomfortable when being watched at, take a look at what they listen to.

Mp3 sales, clubs, videos, women are the main source of income from that cheesy bullsh**. Hence the average listener is average woman, does she care if it's analog?
Already stated, yes she does care, if it's analog or not, she has feelings after all and analog gives such a warmth to tracks, that she not only can hear but feel it too and if she can't feel it, then she won't listen to it.
Analog is the only way to go!
Give me a bottle of anything and a glazed donut - to go!

Edit:
Do those remaining guys on a planet earth will care about Iglesias videos and his lyrics where he says that he wants to lick vaginas?

How about take a look at real life and talk to real women...

and in the meanwhile, please keep your sexist stuff to yourself. It's offensive and doesn't belong here.

It's a real life's reflection, take a look around, plus Facebook is real life for them and probably for you too.
If it's offensive then throw your TV through window, switch the station and barricade yourself in, because it must be offensive to watch it too and don't watch any comedies at all, because sexism jokes is a must for most of them.
So how about real life? huh? were you ever outside? Sun is real, you know! For real, it's real :hyper:, and I'm almost black, because I play shirtless basketball outdoors, sun is real :-o
Sort yourself out and take a look around, me sexist, is it me sexist or is it you who's feeling a little bit insecure from too much truth?
Because I just repeat what I see, I don't give a damn about skanks, and while me who's here a "sexist", non sexist like you allow they preteen children to watch those videos and little girls develop a concept about sexuality from those non sexist videos.
So don't you reply to me and I won't branch out
Because women do care if it's analog!, dismissed, can go into fit now.
You're yourselves pulling me by hand, so don't reply, dismissed!
Because your opinion about my opinion is just an opinion, like my opinion about what I see, so chill out miss insecure.

That's when you live above earth you develop a higher understanding about things around, so for mere mortals it's hard to fathom such concepts, because for most it's all about peace and love, while stomping on bodies and pretending that there's nothing underneath, a path is clear, future is bright.
Analog matters! for average dwellers.

That would be your mum's basement I take it. If you can bear to make it through the pile of discarded pizza boxes and milk bottles, I'd take a look at the world outside.

On second thoughts, do the real world a favour and don't bother.

If you like we can help you achieve your dream of living in orbit :hihi:

Seriously though, you might want to tell your doctor about these delusions of grandeur you're suffering. Anyone can have a debate with the safety net of "oh I'm just superior, you mortals wouldn't understand" - that's an argument cop-out the like of which makes ad hominems seem like a masterclass in debate.

I mean seriously, the clouds are on fire, and they come into your bedroom at night and fart on politicians' faces, that's why they're full of shit, the trump smells turn into poop because of a special bacteria in the politicians - it's all a conspiracy with the cloud people, it's just... you mere mortals wouldn't understand. :roll:

Your wife's, that is, because you once came back home earlier, so I had to hide there, because she doesn't want a divorce.
Edit: She also likes analog, too much plugins dude.

Failed to see where I'm copping out, because a person didn't say anything, so I amused myself, and after all when it comes to it, it's true that most don't even comprehend a single thing, that's their life, and that's an assault to them on their life, so I can't bother to say anything, so better just to look down upon from top of a mountain, especially when someone with thousands of posts suggests to get a life.
It's even worse when someone holds PhD in wikipedia and tries to reason with me, so the only option for me is just amuse myself and look down on.

Yes, people don't understand a fraction of reality, because our senses and reasoning have evolved to deal with mundane crap like staying alive and paying the bills. But don't think for a minute you are any less clueless than the rest of us. What makes you think you have the right to "look down" on others, and what use does this looking down provide? I've found it's a lot more healty to look up. (Except when I'm trying not to step on snails on the way home from the pub)
