First, I have no idea what Hays is talking about, ISP and stuff like that.
Second, Warrick, I was planning to include all videos and put them in different categories (My SS Home Video [which is still in business, but they got rid of the "My" part], Sesame Songs, Movies, Specials, etc.) I'd also prefer them in chronological order. Each video would have a release date (or year), the company who released it (in some cases there are two), a description of it, a list of sketches (if any), credits, and whatever anybody else might want to add to it. I'd also want to include the video box's pictures both front and back, original and current, and maybe a few pics from the content of the video itself.
Here's an example of the first video from the My SS Home Video Series:
GETTING READY TO READ
Release Date: 1986
Running Time: 30 minutes
Company: CTW, Random House, and Sony Wonder
Synopsis (or Description, whichever one you prefer):
Big Bird is working at the "Reading Hotline". People call in or come by when they need help with words. Sam and his pet cat, Rocky, learn how to read food boxes. Ferlinghetti Donizetti demonstrates rhyming words. Maria shows how words that rhyme can easily be read. And all our other friends show how much fun reading can be.
What You'll See...
*Grover Reads the Walking WALK
*Ernie's Rhyming Game
*Cartoon: Clothing-Eating Animals Poem
*Cookie Monster's Galoshes Poem
*Song: "Fat Cat" by Mah Na Mah Na and the Anything Muppets
*Song: "The Word-Family Song ("OP") by the Anything Muppets
*Animation: Hen, Pen, Ten, Men
*Song: "Gimmie Mud" by Slimey and the Worms
*Cookie Monster Reads FOOD
*Song: "Sound It Out" by Same-Sound Brown and Farley
