Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I have now downloaded the .mov version from your website and it is the exact sameone that I get through iTunes (well it appears it is), that also has the same compression artifacts. I even just veiwed it on my computer and they are quite obvious.
This is not a complain (although it sounds like it), just thought you would like to know that the quality is not up to your normal effort.
Now for my suggestion, is it possible for you to make your iTunes version 720p .mp4 as mamy other podcasts that I get off iTunes are?
Keep up the great work either way.
Ciao,
Trev Daley.

Thanks Trev.
We will look into it.
In the meantime if this happens again you can always pop over the QuickTime version, which is always good quality.
Thx
A

Hi Guys,
The compression on this episode (via iTunes) is terrible. Lots of artifacts, eg. blocking.
Normally I can watch your show on my Sony Bravia 54" HD LED set, this episode was unwatchable.
I did re-download it but was just the same.
Keep up the great work anyway.
Ciao,
Trev Daley.
