I always send both...  It's 2009, plain text was out in 1985 :)
I prefer using firefox to gopher, media mail to text mail, and audio AND
video over just audio.
There is however a point when there's too much of a good thing.  I have a
very low tolerance to 'elf yourself' and other such media emails.
