For web and aggregator viewing, a local video producer compresses with H.264. That's his suggestion.
It looks really really great.
If you are interested in putting a true HD file up on a host for download to a device that will allow you to watch true HD, then you might want to host those files on a Bit Torrent type of site.
Just a couple of ideas...
You can also export as .mov using an .mp4 codec and make is more universal.

I have a Sanyo Xacti first generation, and the MPEG4 files compress quite nicely. I am looking at the HD1 as much for the zoon and (better) low light shooting than for its HD qualities. 100MB would make it "unuploadable" to many hosts and downright nasty to those who will accomodate such large file sizes--meaning I could go out for a meal and return and it would still be uploading.

Subject: Re: [videoblogging] File size with Sanyo HD1
if it's at all like the older xactis, then i imagine there are settings
for capturing at different sizes and/or quality
however, as a rough guideline, I have heard that you get about 20
minutes of video on the 2GB card
so 1 min is maybe around 100MB?
just guessing here
as a comparison, i recall that eric rice once posted one minute of HD
from his camera (an HC1?) and it was pretty close to that size if I recall.
i think he was using h.264 for export
not sure what codec they are using on the sanyo (mpeg4?)
