fallenidol: How to download trailers from the Apple site WITHOUT Quicktime PRO

fallenidol: How to download trailers from the Apple site WITHOUT Quicktime PRO
I saw this in my delicious feed. It looks similar to what I did for my This Mobile Life greasemonkey script.

Perhaps I can automate this a little for people. It may be possible to make a GM_XmlHttpRequest on the file linked, determine if it has a *.mov string in it and then change the link. What you want to avoid is downloading a whole .mov file just to check it! Not sure if greasemonkey can do that.
If you want me to look into it, let me know.
