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)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- High Quality MP4 (iPad, PC)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
Did you know that Windows Azure is free for everyone to use, as in gratis, no cost, complimentary?
Okay, there are some limitations, but if you want to kick the tires of cloud computing, the Introductory Special includes a recurring monthly allocation of computation, storage, and AppFabric services - free of charge. You are responsible for any overages, so a credit card must be on file, but you can't beat this simple four-step/five-minute (er, three-minute and 57-second) process to get your own piece of the cloud!
Oh yeah, and to stay in touch with your Developer Evangelists focusing on Windows Azure (including yours truly), bookmark the US Cloud Connection!
