[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dani: [QB] Actually, if you click the small or medium bandwidth links, it does not require QT5 Pro. There's a notice on the site stating why this is happening, it's actually not a Star Wars or George Lucas thing at all, but an issue with Apple wanting to make some money off of the people who suck up all their bandwith watching the large version, as Apple is the host for all of the official SW trailers. And yes, the SW site is really slow the last couple days. If you want to see the trailer, I'd suggest going straight to Apple.([URL=http://starwars.apple.com/ep2/breathing/]Breathing @ starwars.apple.com[/URL]) Here's the deal: [QUOTE]4. Do I need QuickTime Pro to see the trailer? No. The "small" and "medium" versions of the trailer are available with the free QuickTime 5 plug-in. 5. Why make users upgrade to QuickTime Pro to see the largest version? Apple, our long-time video partner and premiere movie trailer provider on the web, recently began this practice with new trailers hosted at its popular movie trailer site. The increasing bandwidth expense involved with the larger files and the growing number of broadband internet users, combined with the technological benefits of QuickTime Pro prompted this new practice. Your one-time upgrade to QuickTime Pro 5 will allow you to see the largest versions of any upcoming Episode II trailers, the large versions of other Apple.com-hosted trailers and provides other worth-while feature enhancements. "Breathing" is currently the only Apple-hosted trailer available in the full-screen 640 size that Star Wars fans want for maximum quality and careful inspection. We are pleased that Apple has been able to make such a large and clear version available and has set up an infrastructure capable of meeting its high demand.
