    The build will likely leak within a day of being given to developers.

    Microsoft never released pre-release software you had to pay for and never will.
    Technet/MSDN users will be one of the "firsts" to DOWNLOAD a official pre-release iso (besides BUILD attendees)
    after that follows Public Beta > RCs > RTM (Final)

    Why do you absolutely want to see that "Windows Beta" watermark...
    It's just a "Windows Beta", followed by a "Build 801..." or Build "802..."
    Nothing more than a Developer Preview watermark or a Microsoft Pre-release OS watermark...

    And even if canouna eventually shows that, you will be disappointed as it has nothing related to Windows public beta, but just a temporary name because ms didn't find the Developer Preview name to show at //BUILD.

    PS : new builds (not unlocked) are as Windows 7. Windows 7 with Windows Dev Preview as name.
    PS2 : unlocking process is like this :
    - you register you copy with a key
    - this registering activates some update, unlocking update
    - when this update is installed, the Windows will be unlocked.
    So, maybe a dev could release some .msu package for unlocking the leaked build... Wait&See
