Out of curiosity, exactly how did you get those videos? Did you save them off of the stream, or do you have... sources? I'm interested in getting the NYC Regional footage, but the organization that filmed it and manages the web streaming never responded to my question of how I could go about obtaining it. SBPLI would also be nice to have.

Which brings me to another topic - do you guys think FIRST should work with the film people to actually sell copies of the competitions? Would you buy a copy? What median would you want it be sold on (VHS, CD, DVD, other)? Personally I think it would be pretty cool to, say, if your team was doing some promotional event to have a tv or a computer with footage of what the actual competitions looks like running in the background so that people have a better idea of how all your work for FIRST ends up. It's one thing to say what the game is like, but it's another thing altogether to have something that the non-FIRSTer can use to actually see the competition side of FIRST.
