We currently using rm for movie data, its stood us well the past 3 years. But now looking for something better. WMV is to rigid and not real a solution.
We then got MPEG4 but means higher file sizes (some of our movies are 25 mins plus long)

I also looked at DIVX which is a great format but from what I gather we would have to apply for a licence to use it commercially.
Anyone currentently using DIVX ?

Or what formats for long play downloadable movies would you recommend other than real.

Imput appreciated thanks
