Yes, this is probably fair to say :) I don't think mine are specifically genre-based - if there is, for example, an rnb video as dedicated to the idea that the right way to enjoy the music is to enjoy it, then I'd certainly go for that.

No, I know that's what you meant, I just think there's more than one way to express enjoying the music. Pretty much every R&B video with a dance routine or situated in a club, for example, codes heavily as "enjoying the music" to me.

Yeah but those people don't count because they're being paid </indieindieindie> :)

I see - 'indie' here means making money off other people working for free? Finally, an 'indie' I can get behind.
