I think that redstone ore takes way to long to mine (~5 seconds if you didn't know). That's much too long I think. When you are running through the mines and there are no mobs anywhere, the time doesn't add anything to the difficulty of the game. It just makes the game a bit lethargic when mining redstone. When there are mobs, they won't usually find you and interrupt you int he 5 seconds it takes to mine this thing. So the time doesn't add to the difficulty in my opinion.
That was a bit long winded, but what im trying to say is simply:

*****Make the redstone mining time about 1 to 1.5 seconds.*****

@ TheBrainiac1mil I like the idea of obsidian taking a while to mine, there needs to be at least one block like that. But redstone is something you need to mine, and you come across it very often. I find that rather than mine it, i'll just leave it.
Im sure there are some people that will agree with me on this idea: Redstone contraptions you make in survival are much more fun to have than the redstone contraptions you have in creative. Having worked to gather all the supplies makes the contraption more valuable when you make it. (For example me and some friends made the dr. wily theme on survival mode and it was great). The same thing on creative gets boring too fast.
I bet if anyone mined fast-mining redstone, then mined slow-mining redstone, they would prefer the faster stuff because it is faster. Faster is better and certainly not imbalanced in this case.
