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)

Hi ZippyV -
Checkout Steve's latest post on adaptive streaming in Windows Azure. The short answer is yes. Sorry it took so long to reply!

Great video.
You mention in the cast that acquiring the file write signature in Page_Load isn't ideal (I agree cos only I can only get it to last for max 29 mins). Where is the best place to get the signature?
My ASP.NET Role 'is' the silverlight control that is hosts. Theres a control on the silverlight control to upload a file to Blob Storage. This is fine while the signature is valid, but not so good when it's expired
Cheers
