have you ever compared nice clean PAL

and you still take mpeg2 as a reference?
i regard dvd (mpeg2 stream) as less sharp than analog
PAL.......(yes i have seen quite a few decent dvd players in action...)
EVERY and ANY codec smooths.......that's why it's called
lossy compression.....(mpeg1,2,4 or rm...)
(sure,i would love to burn and watch my huff capturings...but..)
at the bitrate,rm9 is THE BEST,ie. try to make decent(!)
mpeg2 on 2 cdr's for 2h movie.......

No! I'm talking about Mpeg4 Advanced simple profile ofkoz. With about 1500 kbit, it's quite often gives at first sight identical result to the original. (Not always ofkoz, but often). RV9 blurs the picture at all bitrates. There is no 'same as the original' feeling.
This is all about target audiences. Realvideo has been created for streaming. Why would anybody want to stream at 1500-2000 kbit? It was optimized to <500-600 kbit, and it is very good at there.
