It should probably be "media-production" to match the name I recommended
for the SIG. I chose that name exactly for this reason, its hard to draw
a line between audio and video because video usually involves audio (and
music) as well.

Drawing a line between media consumption, and production is much
clearer.

If you've ever used a full Planet CCRMA system, you know that the Sound
& Video menu gets very large and unmanageable. As we move more apps into
Extras, someday we're going to want to split off a "Media Production"
menu as well.
