The HD you have "or anyone in the internet business" is not shot in 1920x1280 mate
Its HDV which is a bastard format "1080i" shot in 1440 and artificially blown up to 1920x1280 thereby loosing a LOT of quality.

This is where MOST people fail in the "HD" business, then edit and/encode from the 1920 which crap's your quality right off the bat!

"most have no idea that this happens" and THAT my friend is where people fail in HD....

Here is something most people don't realize is actually possible.
In Vegas this year we were streaming HD 1280x720 - BR 3000 on a wireless 750kbs mac laptop....3 second buffer time and NO interrupts after that.

Edit: /rant lol
