You don't know how often as a blog writer I have to skip a program or a site because they don't have decent promotional stills for a scene. These guys have the original video (shot in some form of HD) how much would it kill them to pull 10 or 20 frames out of it so that we have some decent sized stills to work from? Tiny little 300x200 video capture thumbs are NOT going to work.

Still images are important parts of the promotional process, those programs and producers who understand this will benefit from the extra exposure and sales. As part of a paysite, they are at best a free bonus for must subjects, except perhaps very niche fetish stuff.
