Re: WMP9?

WMP9 has better quality than DivX. People just really hate admitting it

 Yup. It's the best compression format. Plus it is standardized. And it has DRM, which is needed for this type of thing (otherwise companies won't buy into it).

Does anyone know the bitrate on this thing? It seems like a very good alternative to a cable company, at least once they get good programming. Right now there's only a few good 'channels'.

It looks like 700-1500k. I think backspace.tv maxed out at 700k when it was free.
