Re: FW: hi need windows directx media sdk

[Wing Wong <buyer1342@saladlove.com>]

Hi Peter,

- Check the licensing of the SDK from the MS(N) site to determine if
  redistributing the SDK is legal. (free or otherwise).

  (I haven't, so am just suggesting this in the event it might be
   illegal.)

If it isn't illegal, then cool.. help out a fellow game developer and mail
off a copy.

But yeah.. it sucks to not have a good line to pull down development
kits. -_- 

Wing. ( I also suggest the checking the legality of the thing since MS
        does off the CD version of the SDK for a fee from their site. )
