The new website is up at
Midweek Politics Radio with David Pakman|Northampton, MA. I'm trying to figure out how to arrange the video and audio content on the website.
RIGHT NOW the home page shows how the video and audio would be together on one page...the video embed is a youtube playlist containing all 8 segments of the show, and below it are high and low quality audio files that can either be played on the site embedded, or downloaded. This is every option for watching/listening on one page.
At the same time, i set up (along the top of the site) sections called radio show and TV show, assuming originally i would have the show description and it's audio files in one "radio" section, and somehow have the video versions in another section. later i realized if i did this, i'd be copying over the exact same show info onto that page...kind of redundant.
what would you do? some have said it's info overload to have all the audio and video stuff on one page. i also don't want to discourage audio downloads for people to put on their ipod by having video on that same page, althought i dont know if that's an issue.
what i do know:
-people need to be able to either listen to (embedded) or download the MP3s
-every video segment from youtube needs to be somewhere on the site
-the layout should make sense but not be overwhelming
-it should be clear that for any given show, people can listen or watch
thoughts?
