One of the reasons I never bought a GoPro for skiing was I felt like the footage would just sit on my hard drive. If this proves useful I would consider getting a camera a lot more. Would be interesting if this gets picked up by GoPro soon.
this is the very motivation that caused us to build Shred Video! "I paid $400 for this camera, and the footage sits dormant" is a super common experience with these cameras, one we felt personally.
