Today, Microsoft's Windows Digital Media Division and Artisan films announced the release of a high-definition version of the motion picture "Terminator 2" in anticipation of this summer's release of "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines." Offering the high-definition version of "Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Extreme Edition)" on a single DVD-ROM was made possible through the use of the new Windows Media 9 Series technology, the software platform developed by the Windows Digital Media Division.
Now heading this division is its general manager, Amir Majidimehr, who previously was responsible for the development of the core Windows Media Audio and Video technologies, and software such as Windows Movie Maker and Plus! Digital Media Edition. In his new role, Amir will lead the team in developing the latest digital media technologies, and will also plan and execute strategies that will impact the future of digital entertainment. PressPass spoke with Majidimehr to learn more about how today's news fits into the division's overall strategy.
