AMV vs MAD

Does anyone actually like AMVs? I find many of them to be annoying (especially since 90% of them use Linkin Park or System of a Down) and not very entertaining. Most of them just take a 3 minute scene or splice together a few number of scenes and put the music over it. Oh and all the random effects they throw in.

What's especially annoying is when I'm trying to find a specific fight scene or something and the top 10 results are AMVs or the user thought it'd be a good idea to overwrite the original audio with their crappy music.

MADs on the other hand I find like 90% of them to be very entertaining or funny and creative. You can tell that a lot of effort was put into the making of it and the results show.

I'm not sure if this is true but I think it's mostly the west that makes AMVs and little to none MADs.
