Wow, thanks.

The HD version is a great way to test various configurations of  
different video players, drivers etc. with known good content,  
eliminating all the variables inherent in tuning, capturing etc.

In other words, if you can't get the HD version of this file to play  
perfectly, you need to look someplace other than Myth for your problems.

It's also nice to see Bitorrent used for legal purposes, the way it  
was meant to be.

And on top of all that, it's better than average content as well.

A wonderful example of what Open Source can do.
