Was just looking at the microsoft site the other day and found these samples of HD films that you can get for wmv 9. Downloaded some and have to say am very impressed with the quality, looks like microsoft are trying to get it accepted as the new standard to take over from current DVDs, apparently up against Blu-ray + EVD.
Anyhow worth a look if you haven`t seen already and have the specs to do so as it requires at least a 2.4gig. Also the faster your internet connection the better!

P.S.
If this is considered microsoft spam I will be happy for it to be removed! 
Altho it was posted purely for interests sake.
