I agree with this but I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not. On one hand it means that the overall quality of AMV's have gone up (in very general terms of course, comparing now with 6 or 7 years ago.) This is great for the veiwer, who gets to see a ton of truely excelent videos. And the incresed pressure provides a reason for people to take months on a video.
However, for the creator it is now very hard for the average person to "make the grade" which can be discouraging. In other words the average creator's videos are below average (in case you think I'm being condecending, I count myself in this group.)
The biggest problem though, is that it stops many AMV's from being made. I have given up on a lot of ideas because they would be only good, and not spectacular.
