YouTube users will be able to help the MoMA select videos for a new exhibit. So when you shell out $20, you're paying for the same crap you can find on the internet. And this is happening at museums all over. We can just hear the board meetings where old donors keep pestering museum directors about these new "podcast things" they've heard about, and how they are going to change the world.

UPDATE: Thanks for the link, Andrew.
