NOTE: The iPod Video file is now 640x480 and is very large. It would be faster for you and easier for us (to keep down bandwidth costs) if you downloaded one of the other h264 versions. The time it would take to download the 395.3 MB iPod file here may be longer than the time it would take you to download the smaller file and encode it for the iPod (using QuickTime) yourself.
