    Congrats Ben, sincerely 😉

    Once you there, give us a wmp 11 that’s doesn’t oversaturate colors, or a way not to 🙂

    Hey Ben, good luck. So who is the go-to guy now in the compression field? We need another Ben!

    What made you decide to join such a huge organization where your options might be less…besides a bigger paycheck?

    Ben,

    Ha! – I won my bet (a private bet). I guessed a while back you’d end up there.

    Best of luck at Microsoft. While you’re there I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you’ll do much to further the support for Windows Media (and VC-1?) on the Mac….?

    Yeah, who was that bet with. It was rather out of the blue for me :).

    As for WMV on Mac, Flip4Mac 2.0 free for playback in QuickTime a decent start for you?
