I agree; a text document can be searched for key words and items of interest can easily be extracted for future reference. I may be more critical of quality/quantity of content than most people because of being a technical instructor for a number of years, but most of the audio/video interviews

Of course, the same can be said for any linear, real time-based based form of communication, whether a telephone call, watching a movie, a school lesson, the minister's sermon, etc. There is no way to tell until the communication is concluded if there was content of interest, or how much.
