Thanks Ryan,

How do you define "the whole series"? You can view all of the WCF screencasts using the Channel9 tag for WCF Endpoint Screencasts. We're also trying to regularly list the series on the MSDN Dev Center WCF screencasts page.

Hope this helps!

You should be able to download the files without [too much of a] problem. The files are Windows Media files and are definitely downloadable. In later episodes, I was able to make more than the high quality format available, but these should still not be prohibitively large for your mp3 player of choice.

For me (using IE8), I can download the file by clicking on the 'down arrow' under the thumbnail image, right-clicking on the 'Screencast' option, and then select 'Save Target As...' from the context menu.

Hope this helps,
Cliff
