I have such mixed feelings about this, but primarily against Stevie's favor. I totally get how it could be distracting to have people at your feet recording your every move every night. And if she were to flub, it could possibly be exposed to thousands of people instantly. She can't even leave a venue or go to a restaurant without being recorded by multiple people either. That'd definitely get old.

On the other hand, Stevie has absolutely no problem using things like youtube to her advantage. We pretty much have youtube to credit for Secret Love's inclusion on In Your Dreams. She's used youtube to research outfits and hats for that Australian horse race. It really irks me how Stevie derides computers for the dissolution of society in one breath, and extolls the internet age's benefits in another. The internet & youtube can be SUCH a powerful & free publicity tool if you stop fighting it and use it to your advantage.
