Curating and exhibiting film and video in earlier decades. many museums
realized the difference between the slick, commercial produced works and
experimental but more likely to be lasting works of art. (that appear
ragged only to those unfamiliar with experimental uses of the media)

But as they begin to approach Internet art, museums seem to be favoring
overproduced works by artists with limited understanding of the medium.

Perhaps this is because on the Internet an individual artist or a group
of artists can share an equal platform with a museum. The museum may
attract more hits because of name recognition, but those hits do not
necessarily reflect viewers spending time with a work of art.

It is understandable that an established museum may believe that it can
only "compete" in this place/medium by spending more money. But in the
long run this strategy is likely to undermine that museum's credibility.
