electric relaxation

I just tried this out last night. I needed another fix of Lost after blowing through the first season at Jai’s house, and this was unsurprisingly the quickest way to get it.

I’m somewhat disappointed, for two reasons:

1. The video quality seems pretty poor. The movies are watcheable, but for the size (200 MB), I would’ve expected more. The average TV show obtained via other means is usually around 175 MB and looks better than this… or so I hear, or something.
2. There are polish issues. The videos aren’t more clearly distinguished from the audio in iTunes. The video files should be stored in ~/Movies or its equivalent on Windows instead of just in ~/Music/. The Music Store link should be renamed Media Store or just Store. I’m way anal about this sort of thing but Apple usually is too. I guess they just want to get this out there and they’ll clean up these sorts of issues if this really catches on?
