Re:Streaming Video + Slashdot

I don't particularly like the fact that it features a song from the previous

This is very common, unfortunately. They probably because a) the soundtrack isn't done yet, or b) they want to keep the soundtrack a secret (since it's a part of the whole movie experience, and they don't want to take away too much of that experience with one ad).

The Attack of the Clones ad has music from Episode I. The most recent add for the Twin Towers (At the end of FotR) has the soundtrack from FotR.

And still, to this day, many action movie ads use the sound track from Aliens (during the part where the Terraforming Plant is exploding); and that song is nearly 16 years old!

yup...but they filmed it at the same time. They are coming out within a couple months of each other...

Assuming the videos are encoded with something "mpeg-like" then the static screens will use up virtually zero bandwidth. They compress by working out deltas from one frame to the next, static image == no differences == perfect compression.
