The article is wrong. The Panasonic does not support HDV at all, only true HD and standard def.
I agree that shooting 100Mbps hi-def is overkill for current web-delivered video, but remember that 4 years ago, everyone was putting up 320x240 video as "state of the art." Given the speed with which very high bandwidth to the home is becoming available, I think that within several years, hi def through web will be either a standard or a common feature in online porn.
That's why we are shooting the best hi-def we can now. In a couple years, we'll have a large cache of content that will still be close to state of the art, that we can re-render in higher definition modes, and be ahead of the curve in the quantity of content we have available.
