"Hey everyone, Hope the start of summer is treating you well. We're starting to bake here in Austin... ☀️🔥 This has been on our todo list for a while, but we want to add the ability to give a little more context to an item <> artist submission. Namely, context on usage - was the gear used live? In the studio? On a recording? It would be optional, and retroactively editable on all past subs. Here's what it would look like, nice and simple: https://i.imgur.com/lDqFj0x.png What I want..."

Actually gave some thought to including that as one of the options but didn’t think enough subs would apply to it.

Perhaps a bit unsatisfying but I’d leave usage off for a music video, none of the current options really make sense 🤷🏻‍♂️

I know we got all serious about music videos being an art form in the 90's and 00's, but they're still promotional material, right? They're a commercial for the artist and the song. Record labels fund music videos to sell more records.

That said, I can't recall the last time I saw a new music video that featured anyone playing any instruments. MTV is categorized as a "comedy" network on my Sling subscription right now, I kid you not... so maybe it's a moot point either way. Times have changed.

So, anyway, if leaving music videos untagged is the new guidance, I'll stick to it.
