Downloading video from afl.com.au

I've discovered something that may be very useful either for complete footy fiends or for those who cannot get access to FOX Sports World.
It seems there's a piece of freeware available on the net called "ASFrecorder", the purpose of which is to save a streaming Windows Media file -- such as those on the AFL/Telstra website -- to a file on your hard drive that you can watch later at your leisure, without the glitches and delays of the "live" stream. Even as I type this, I am downloading two of the free streams available on their site as a test to see if this really works as advertised. If it does, I am seriously going to consider a subscription, as I will be able to set up my computer to download an entire match in the morning and have it all downloaded ready to watch when I come home. The other advantage of ASFrecorder is that if you have only a 56k connection and are patient, you can still download the high-bandwidth version; it'll just take quite a while.
It's an easy program to find -- just put "asfrecorder" into Google. I downloaded my copy from the archives at PCWorld.com.
Here's hoping this helps everyone who wants it ... Get More Footy!!!!
