iPod Video compression tests

Based on my short test, I'm not surprised by the slowness of the conversions in these tests. But when quality is the concern, I think they are asking too much of a compressed 320X240 video. It's supposed to look good for a $2 video on a small screen. Go to the movies, watch TV or buy a DVD if you want better.

If it looked any better blown up, Apple (and everyone else who will get into the business) would never get the deals with the media producers.
