I bet spielberg, lucas are not fully upto scratch on this scene and jumped at the opportunity, others who have better been able to use this kind of PR would have used other services for PR. You would have thought at the least the platform for video uploading quality would have been mastered by now, but the quality is appauling. I noticed that they used top of the line of the video recording equipment when they did the interviews, and with a software under $100 would have converted these videos into the smallest appropiate files for seesmic but with the best quality for the video player size. The sound quality seems very good, but you expected more.
