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…”
- WMV (WMV Video)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)

Thanks for the great show! But whats up with the throughput on these queues?? Isn't it about 500 msg/min or something?
According to http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2010/05/10/windows-azure-storage-abstractions-and-their-scalability-targets.aspx, the scalability target for queues is 500 transactions per second (not minute).
Thanks Steve. I got it all wrong then. 500 msg per sec is actually pretty OK, and you can also put up as many queues as you like, right? So say I need about 2000 msg/sec throughput, I could create queue1 to queue4 and come out at about 2000 msg/sec. Thanks a lot for answering anyway! You guys way cool
