I for one have always enjoyed the video modes on DMD machines. They're often humorous and pretty short, so I never felt that they interfered with the actual pinball gameplay.

Why even bother with any innovation? We should all just go back to flipperless machines with score reels.

But seriously, one of the reasons I left NeoGeo forums was the way the community treated new members. Here it can sometimes be more of the same. Some incredibly cranky posters many times just take it out on new members. That's a shame.
