When one realizes that the product team costs can make watchable quality
commercial TV cost $10,000-$30,000/minute, the relaive cost of equipment
versus editorial groups, proiducer groups, actors, camera crews,
post-prod teams, etc. becomes clear ....

Now and then a home movie quality video will be *very important* for 
large audeinces ....  Kennedy assasination, Rodney King beating ..... 
and there can be some less expensive interesting video (Fred Wisemen's 
Cinema Verite'). But it's rare.
