Wow. It looks like someone has finally embraced the WMVHD format for
distribution of High Definition video:
http://www.mariposaHD.tv
I quote:
"mariposaHD is the world's first High Definition TV series distributed
directly on the Internet. And it's free. mariposaHD is recorded, edited, and
distributed in the full 1920x1080 pixel resolution of the 1080i standard. We
distribute mariposaHD using the BitTorrent peer-to-peer software. With a
broadband Internet connection, you can download and watch mariposaHD on your
PC, your HDTV, or even a video iPod.
mariposaHD is produced by four ordinary guys who quit their jobs, moved to
South America, and decided to make a TV show. We film everything with HDV
camcorders and edit the video on a PC in our living room. You can download
mariposaHD for free from our Web site, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from
anywhere in the world. mariposaHD is distributed under a Creative Commons
license which means that you can keep it, copy it, and share it forever as
long as you don't charge for it or alter it."
The video quality is absolutely breathtaking! The videos are free to
download (in 1080i or 720p) and you need a BitTorrent client.
