Hi Jason,
The site looks quite different from few weeks ago. Do we need to download both the LATEST Metro section and the All section in each track?
Thanks,
Peter

Strange... I don't see any "METRO section" that you mentioned. each of the link should go to http://sqlserver2008jumpstart.microsofttraining.com and I you need to create an account first.
Please try again and do let me know if you hit any problem.

Hi Jason,
I have copied the sections from Developer track below so you can see what I'm referring to. I'm starting to download the Recordings from the LATEST Metro section and it will take 18 hrs.
Update: The download just keeps hanging. Cannot even play the session directly. Is there another site to download it?
Update: Finally albe to download it using a download manager.
