Preferred mpeg-2 encoder 2007 and beyond?

well, obviously for those with deep pockets CCE seems to be "the best", but is MEncoder still the preferred encoder for DVD-Spec MPEG-2?

the most recent threads i see are from 2004-2005, including google searches... it seems that HEnc, Quenc (ffmpeg?), and assumably MEncoder still seem to be actively updated.

or is it content dependent? it seems that my previous fave, TMPGEnc 0.x-2.5x has fallen out of common discussion (and is pretty slow...) and possible use...
