Unfortunately, this download is so crippled with Digital Rights Management that you are SEVERELY restricted with respect to the machines and ways that you can view it. I should have known - what do you expect from the company that deletes files from Kindle owners' collections after the customers have bought them? These will NOT download onto a Mac or Linux computer, or to an iPod, iPhone, etc. Only to a Windows machine with specific software installed. Of course, you don't find out about this until after you've purchased the program. Skip Amazon's DRM crippled downloads; find somewhere else to purchase them, instead.

Unfortunately there is no Chevy Chase, but the rest of the original SNL cast is at the top of their game! Dan Ackroyd as Julia Child, Gilda Radner as Candie Slice, the brilliant Eric Idle of Monty Python, and a cameo by a young and adorable Loren Michaels. As a special bonus, the musical guest is Kate Bush, an early progressive rock genius.
