Wasn't so keen on the first one and the second half of the last one but was impressesd by the rest. The more I see of two handed tapping the more I think it's the most efficient way of playing the guitar. Maybe I'll start working on it in 50 years or so when I start to get used to the traditional way of playing.

Speed was impressive, definitely. I've always been more impressed, however, by those guitarists who manage to wring more music out of a handful of notes than by the shredders who try to fill every second with as many notes as possible.
If you like the two hand tap method, check out Adam Fulara on youtube. Pretty cool stuff there, too.

Yep. Awesome technical skill but the music had me alternating between yawning and reaching for the Aspirin.

But that's what I liked about this guy, I love the melodies he comes up with. I don't get the impression that he's a mindless non-musical shredder at all, quite the opposite in fact. Even on the last one where he is shredding at 90mph, it's not just solid shredding. He mixes it up very nicely with a wide variety of blues licks, and has great dynamics going from soft quiet licks to full on shredding and everything in between. The first one is my favorite songwise.
I dunno, I really liked it (not just the technique but the actual music) but YMMV.

I can't see myself doing that with David though. He's definitely worth multiple listens, but I don't think it's going in my repitition playlist.
