That depends on how technical you want to get.... Today the technology is here to do variable bit rates & bw rate control, on the fly, even switch streaming technology based on the device, which can done via trans-coding or layered compression, while slightly different, both produces almost the same results.
Outside of the crazy stuff, which goes way the heck past what I just explained... I would go with h.263 and your own encoded player to stream them. However, I know very little about that and leave it to the real experts, like Konrad.
Biterates on it's own, "personally" I believe the smallest you can get, yet keeping it clear.. my focus is buffer times over super quality. If it takes more than a few seconds to buffer, it's too damn big.
