So I click the link and the first thing I notice is a Windoze ad on the right side of the web page. Clicking on the ad takes you here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/shop/specialoffers.mspx
Gee, I wonder who this website is beholden to.
Then I click for a bit more info on your "journalist du jour", Jacqui Cheng. She appears to be a codewriter trying her hand at journalism.
Tell ya what. You can put your faith in journalists who appear to have been born yesterday. I'll continue to pay attention to industry insiders like Bay whose main motivation is to get their work in the hands of consumers in the highest possible quality.
And one more thing. Anyone who thinks Microsoft isn't primarily interested in video to get revenue from downloads is mentally retarded.
