To accept this invitation and to apply to become a member of this program, follow this link:
-sorry, but this link has been removed because I don't want to mess up my chances...I know you understand
(To report a problem or to ask a question, contact us at wmcbeta@microsoft.com.

Note: The Windows Media Center Beta has not begun. This is a preliminary invitation only. Notifications will be sent to you as the program start date gets closer.

And then... once connected and finalized, you will see a page that states this:
