Didn't work well for me. I'm on an 8Mb connection so I have plenty of bandwidth but for whatever reason I was getting frequent pauses and after starting at 4Mb the stream kept degrading and degrading down to the lowest stream....and even then I wasn't getting a steady framerate. Wonder if it's related to running Windows 7?

Even still the technology to change the stream bandwidth on the fly was very impressive.

Sort of off topic: In case anyone is interested in the movie itself, it was actually created by a bunch of hobbyists using only free software. A stunning achievement.

Oh my god. This is actually really good. Unfortunatly I'm only able to stream at half the max quality. I'm stuck at about 2.8mb at my house but it still looks really good. I do have this website open and 2 others though which will lower the quality. It dropped down a setting just opening up this message box.

Heres the direct link to the test by the way.

This was the most impressive thing I have seen in a while. I had a very sharp picture without any pop-ups or something.

Can't wait to see this on my 46" HDTV.

Unbelievable technology, provided the servers are up to the job this will be amazing.

This was the most impressive thing I have seen in a while. I had a very sharp picture without any pop-ups or something running between 1.1 and 1.5 mbs.

Can't wait to see this on my 42" HDTV.

Video On Demand is the future..... NOW ..... B_E_L_I_E_V_E

After watching this amazing stream I am finally sure VOD is very close in the future. The market for disc based media for movies will shrink quickly.
