I'll add that the vast majority of video tutorials or lectures that I've seen are way too slow to hold my interest, with the exception of google tech talks, and stuff like OCW from MIT. (These are at http://research.google.com/video.html and http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/home/home/index.htm respectively). However, I do really like the idea of showmedo, especially for people who like learning through not-so-dense video on the introductory level. I haven't been incredibly impressed with the quality of the free stuff there either, but I also haven't looked at any of the paid stuff. I don't think that it's safe to assume that it's of a substantially higher quality.
