sorry, but this is not true. DV AVI and HDV MPEG2 have the same filesize, mostly every at least 2 year old computer can handle HD editing and we didn't buy one single extra light or so for production just because we switched to HDV.

and with good encoding you can tweak the best ratio between picture quality and bitrate so that in my opinion 3000 kbit is enough for a 1280x720 resolution. and on top i offer 640x360 in 800 kbit for those who don't want to download but stream right away.

and honestly: downloading a 500 mb file is nowadays for 88% of the people a matter of a couple of minutes
