Is there any web site that compare VC-1 and H264?

I am moving to DivX to either WMV9 or X264 and I want to encode my movies now so they will play on Stand-Alone-Players in the future.

It appears that both of these are going to be supported by Stand-Alone-Players in the future. But, WMV9 seems to have the edge if you want to encode now and ensure it will play on one of these players in the future. H264 doesn't seem to have the guidance to the SAP manufactures to tell them what specifications they should meet.

Anyone know of good reviews of video quality?
