Heroes Video Podcast in Zune Marketplace (zmp exclusive)

We're partnering with NBC and Heroes executive producer and director Allan Arkush to create five unique music video podcasts that will be exclusively available for free download on Zune Marketplace. The podcasts will feature "Heroes" footage set to select tracks from the album, and Nada Surf's "Weightless" will be the first available, starting today.
 Click here to launch the Zune software and download the video podcast directly. 
For more details, check the media alert on Zune.net, or this article in The Hollywood Reporter.

On a personal note: as a Heroes fanboy, I'm pretty excited about this.

While thats all fine and dandy, Im sure everyone would rather you get some real videos for us.

Even if we have to pay for them (Tv shows and the likes) we would much rather be able to watch TV shows, much like a certain competitor would let us (although, I would NEVER use them, I LOVE my Zune way to much).

hmm looks cool, although I originally(before I read the actual post) thought it was saying zune mp was gonna have full episodes of heroes which would have been a little more awesome.

This is a fantastic project. Original, exclusive content on the ZMP is a very good thing.

Oh, sweet! Hero's is awesome, have you heard of the new Frank Klepacki soundtrack? It's really sweet, you should visit his website, it's free and all, maybe you could ask him if you could post in the "Friday Music thing" He normally replys to e-mails pretty quick.

I never really got into Heroes, probably cause I dont watch TV much.
