The focus here seems to be on encode which is fine but I would have expected to hear more about the decode side of things.  Specifically, do all decoders perform equally well or not.  If not, what are the differences.

It's also important to view playback data from within the context of the full spectrum of playback and interactivity parameters most relevant to your work.  If you  are a content developer who deals with the widest possible array of media as many of us in higher education must do, QuickTime is dominant despite weaknesses here and there (e.g. scale-able streaming).

On the other hand, if your interest is in a few areas or one specific area (e.g "DVD Backup" as here), aspects of that one area become much more important in your playback decision making.

So, looking at this data one ought to ask, "Is DVD backup relevant to what I want to do?"
