These sample clips are in "Windows Media Player" format.  They've been reduced in size and quality for the internet.  But rest assured that the DVD's are full-screen and high-quality.

For slower connections, you may want to first "Save" them to your computer.  Right-click on the link, go to "Save Target As", give it a name, then click "Save".  Once they've downloaded, open with "Windows Media Player".
