Not sure where AMVs try to convey a story or where MADs summarize/promote an anime or a theme. And like I said, if you only look for AMVs on youtube, you are going to get a bunch of shitty/crappy ones and almost no good ones (hint; good ones are usually removed for copyright violations.)
Most people making MADs have no idea what they are doing either. A lot are pretty terrible too, it's just that they don't get as nearly as much exposure. (Hint; don't look on YouTube...look on NicoNicoDouga instead
)

Does that make the 車 a Japanese version of the car?
I own a Toyota. So I didn't drive my 車, because I didn't feel like going out today.

I owned a car once. It broke down at 112,000 miles. Now I drive a kurama, 200,000 miles and still going strong! Cars suck, kurumas are awesome!
