I tried it again last night, and they must be getting hammered. Either that or the encoding/streaming quality is just inherently bad. YouTube is is better than HULU, as it stands today. I also don't understand why they have every episode of Airwolf from Seasons 1 and 3, but no Law & Order full episodes? Sheer stupidity. Licensing and royalty issues are probably mucking up the works behind the scenes, if I had to guess.

As for ad-supported Xbox Live Video downloads, I'm not sure what the future holds. I'd like to see it, and I'd use it alot more than I use the paid service now. Maybe Microsoft could/should do a trial period, and see what the customer response and business model look like.
