I think, sometimes, that instructors don't always have a lot of say-so on it. I remember an old interview with Jillian Michaels ,where she discussed her first DVDs - the Biggest Winner workouts. Apparently, the producers said EVERYTHING must fit into a 30 minute timeframe, and the warmup was shortchanged because of this.

Yes! Appropriate warm ups & cd/stretches for that actual workout, please!! Also, what happened to stretching out your neck area?
I actually prefer to have a short, but thorough & appropriate, warm up with longer cd/stretches. But, if a warm up is too long for my liking/time constraint, that's where chaptering is great.

Well, with DVD technology, this shouldn't even be a problem. As others have pointed out up-topic, with chapter points, it's easy enough to just skip over the part of the warm-up you don't want to do.
It just drives me crazy when DVD producers don't use the technology. They should be ashamed of themselves. And, I usually know when they don't because I always want a warm up, but don't like really long ones...
