All finalgear does is organize the links to mininova for you. If you really want it you can go to mininova and get it.

You know, I really love remote access and public WiFi. I logged into one of the servers in the WCBS master control room from the SRQ airport this afternoon while waiting for my flight, installed utorrent on it, and started the download. Just got into Manhattan and checked it from the hotel, and it's sitting there waiting for me to retrieve it tomorrow.

Ok, I see the confusion. I meant zip as in send, not zip as in compress.

So I grabded the file with bittorrent, came across as an avi. But I just get audio, no video, in Windows Media and Winamp. Looks like maybe I am missing a codec. Anyone have any idea what I need?

Nevermind, got it

IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE EPISODE STOP READING NOW! Spoilers beyond here.

Great episode As difficult as it is, I'll reserve further commentary to avoid the spoiler.
Thanks for the link.

It's on surfthechannel.com, even my crappy internet is streaming it fine. Everyone wait 46 minutes before watching it though.
