Amen to that! And yes, your site rocks ;)

First off, we set the bar at 8k, not to tell sites what to do, but to let other sites know what others are doing. We're watching it happen. And that's not to say you have only one quality choice when you join such sites. Many have much lower bitrates available. But for those consumers who want the best, it's there for them.

And here's a brief list of the "moronic" companies offering fantastic quality videos:

21 Sextury Cash
Blazing Bucks
DDF Cash
FTV Cash
Hard Glam Cash
HDV Bucks
Jugg Cash
Met Art Money
Mofos Cash
Nasty Dollars
Naughty America
OT Cash
Payserve
Twistys Cash
Ztod


And a lot of these "morons" are encoding 10k+. I'd argue that these are some of the most experienced companies online. You don't think they know what they're doing??

It's not the fucking zagat guide.
It depends on your business model. We can make money by giving the honest facts. It works for us.

And no, we're not Zagat... but we're trying ;)

Now we're talking! And that's not bad. You could probably add a few more in there, too. Quality models, maybe, judged by performance. Effective storyline. Effects. That could easily be a site worth putting together. Would it take a trained eye in production? Yep. It would. But no matter how inclusive you made it, along those lines, though, there would be a bunch of people looking for a technical dissection. There is room for different sites with different ways of calculating value. Nobody speaks for everyone. We just try and do a good job from the viewpoint we represent.
