How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Opening with a short clip from the world’s first “podcasting song” that Michael wrote in late 2004, Charles and Michael talk about how podcasting has evolved, how Microsoft is using podcasting and what the future of podcasting holds in store.

SlackmasterK you beat me. heheh. Good video tho.

Mike are you a napster subscriber? I tried the service for 7 months and after encountering more error messages because of DRM problems I just cancelled my subscribtion this week.
Mike I have the buzz casts and arc casts....keep them up...I listen to them religiously!
BTW, Major Nelson's podcast is really really cool. (http://www.majornelson.com)
Charles the lighting, video quality, and sound are fantastic in this video!
I don't suppose you've ever heard of how copying is the most sincere form of flattery ? The wonderfull thing about letting users CHOOSE what is the best way of doing things is... redundant actually.
For instance:
DRM sucks, and restricts users.
Open Formats (really open, not just a stamp that says 'open') allow users to do what they _want_ with content.
Open Forums allow users to say what they feel about a product/service/whatever, instead of just a 'poll' that is worded with bias.
Just like people commenting here, you are not 'sleeping with the enemy' by talking about or using podcasts, beit audio or video. You are showing support for something that interests you, and defining 'cool' instead of drinking the companies 'cool' aid.
Nice segment by the way. I'm wgetting it to a few 'open' boxes right now.
Very Interesting.
The channel 9 site gurus are doing a bang up job.
