Hey guys (and the occasional gal). Last night I noticed the promo for the tour was one of the commercials during the Simpsons, so when it aired on the Fox8 ECHO, I made sure to capture it.
I uploaded it to an account I JUST made at RapidShare. Here's the link.

This is one of those things where you have to click to download it, wait 45 seconds before you can download it, and do the "Enter the characters you see in this box" sort of thing.
Details:
Type: Video (AVI)
Size: 9.02 MB
Length: 30 seconds
Codecs: (Video: XVID) (Audio: MPEG-Layer 3)
Format: Widescreen
Resolution: 720 x 430
For reasons unknown to me (Stormster wasn't too helpful in helping me diagnose the problem online), the video played upside down for him. Since at this time I am unsure why it does so for him (did I mention the unhelpfulness?), if the same problems occurs for any of you, only things at this time I can suggest are:
1) Use something else besides Windows Media Player (like VLC, Media Player Classic, even PowerDVD).
2) Make sure you have the full version of the codec in question, not some trial or otherwise crippled version.
I chose a codec which is very common in the world of P2P, so if any of you are big in downloading videos, you ought to have encountered this codec before and hopefully won' have any problems.
Note: Since I am using a free account for this, I am unsure if there is a limit to the number of times it can be downloaded.
EDIT (25/09/2007): - I realise the video itself has already been posted as a YouTube link. I posted this so people have a really high-quality alternative.
