Flashing borders... yeah, good times.
Well, sort of what Chaos said. If I see a creator has a certain style I find interesting, I download their other videos and see if they're consistent. But when looking for new vids...
Anime
Group
Description
Usually I don't download it if it doesn't have some description, because on a 56k modem I don't have enough time to just go and download everything.
I also don't like to watch a video where I haven't seen the anime. And then if the group sounds interesting or I'm sure I like them, I get it regardless of the song. Unless I know it's a bad song.
