  1. Subtitled interview with Lance Armstrong on Dutch TV, illustrated with
    archive footage with commentary in Dutch. Interviewer and commentator
    Mart Smeets does not speak English perfectly but should be
    understandable. File format WMV9 320x240, 164 MB, 0:44:37.

    Compared to the Hamilton interview on BBC World, this is one big LA
    promo, not critical at all. Some "revelations": he's never going to do a
    Vuelta or Giro anymore, but does desperately want to win a classic like
    RVV, AGR or LBL. Also: "I don't have much time left for that", hinting
    that it has to be either this year or the next and then he's done. Based
    on this, I don't see him doing another Tour.

    Uploading now to alt.binaries.multimedia.sports and
    alt.binaries.celebrities. Download from there manually or using
    http://www.phys.uu.nl/~dronkert/tmp/lancearmstrong.nzb

    Maybe to the webserver in a few days.

    I'll agree to bear all your children if you put it on the webserver.

    When I click on the URL I just get lots of HTML code. Is there a
    program that is supposed to load and begin downloading the files?

    XML actually. But yes, open the file with a NZB enabled binary news
    client like Newsbin, Grabit or Newsleecher. The NZB file is just a
    convenience, you may also download the files one by one with any news
    reader (from one of the mentioned newsgroups). See info text at the top
    of the /tmp page.

    Are any of those programs free of charge?
