Someone pointed to Om Malik's report on Google Video, where a reader left this comment: In my ideal world, all forms of digital video would be Quicktime and encoded in H264, because nothing out there, at this time, comes even close to even hoping to touch H264's image quality at the lowest

I'm not trying to get into a web traffic pissing contest, but when people qualify their stats with percentages and make inferences as to some kind of larger trend, then it helps to know the sample size we're talking about and whether or not its statistically significant. -josh On 12/24/05,

Representative or not, the actual statistics may tell us something. I have one video (so far) that is available in the three formats under discussion:M4V - viewed in iTunes, but also by some feed readers/aggregators. SWF - viewable in some feed readers/aggregators.NB: For this particular video

We're speaking past eachother, I think. There are two kinds of videoblogging - for the sake of the argument we can call one videoblogging and the other video podcasting. The first includes aspects of the blog. It's a remediation of the blog and tv (among others). Think McLuhan. The latter
