Again, I agree - and this is why I've been arguing that video-blogging aggregators ought to offer a number of different ways of approaching the material. Content flagged through RSS seems so transient - there is very little emphasis on what happens once the content drops off the end of a feed. Archiving is one thing, but wouldn't it be great if we could "re-run" the video-blog/podcast? Current thinking of the way RSS aggregators work favours the kind of show that, ooh say, Rocketboom produces - but is not necessarily appropriate for a multitude of other types of content.
