Several people have posted videos on Youtube about Nethack. As 2010 began there were well over 700 [[1]] (Link to Search). There are musical videos, parodies and other fan material as well as lots of gameplay excerpts.
A few people have diligently chronicled their repeated attempts to ascend with the Amulet. The two main series are...
The Nethack Diaries

Lets play Nethack!

(Link to Playlist) This is a more protracted series through the Dungeons from a more knowledgeable player, who tends to get unstuck in the Gnomish Mines. It covers 152 videos.
Time Lapse Ascensions
There are also several 8-10 minute videos which show a sped-up ascension all the way through which are perhaps more instructional. [4]
