I have trouble with this poll, because my answer to the questions is basically:
1) multimedia 2) multifandom 3) crossover 4) Both
"Multimedia" is what I was fannishly "raised" to use to mean what a lot of fans now term "multi-fandom," in reference to both vids and zines. Kind of. But in some areas of fandom, perhaps particularly those of fans who've been in fandom for 10+ years/whose participation predates largely online fandom, it's still fairly common, at least in my experience.
I'd be more likely to use multimedia to describe a zine (text and art) or a vid (song and visuals and/or multiple media sources) than an online archive, which tend to be solely text. So I'd be more likely to say a "multimedia vid" or "multimedia zine," but a "multifandom archive."
And I probably wouldn't use either term for a crossover; I'd just call it a crossover. :)
