Pretty dumb video with no actual usable/new info. Maybe someone should tell Axis that all cell phones still have antennas. They are just internal to the case.

Lets keep this negative AXIS information rolling and maybe we can get enough steam to surpass the daily HIKVISION kerfuffle.

Undisclosed Integrator #2
It makes sense that Axis would pretend Analog HD doesn't exist as they don't have a presence or method to really combat it. Unfortunately, this feels much like when Axis was invading the market around 2003-2006 where Pelco, Bosch, and the like pretended IP didn't exist.
This is not a good tactic:

Admitting ignorance up front on HD Analog.
I understand the advantage if Coax is already in place. What is the advantage of HD Analog in a green fields install? Isn't HD Analog limited to a resolution of 1080P?

I personally like this video from Axis. It has good mixture of information that could generate leads with end users as well as integrator. It is also focused on high level benefits rather than getting into the small details.
I agree with comments that Analogue is certainly easier to setup however i feel this ease of setup is limited to situations where a DVR is used. In the video you can see they are connecting through an encoder so this would certainly make setup take longer than an IP camera if using a VMS like milestone for recording.
I feel the fading into the past comment is not factually correct though. HD Analogue is certainly getting traction in the market and it will keep getting more popular.
