surfers have it their head that MPEGs are the shit. i dunno but when I compare an MPEG and WMV at similar bitrates I can't tell any difference and the WMV file is still smaller.

The one advantage i see is that when an MPEG is playing while it's still downloading (pseudo streaming) i can go backwards and forwards, when I do the same thing with a WMV file, until the whole movie has been downloaded i can't use the reverse and forward buttons.

I am always interested in hearing how to get the best quality MPEGs at the smallest file size. Which software does the best job?
My guy uses the default settings in Adobe Premiere 6.5 and the MPEGs are like 11 MB's per minute. Too big I think? How much smalller should we getting them without losing much quality?
