Here is what I do; After I compress, I open the movie in Quicktime pro and scale it to 640x480--I don't acutally change the pixles in the movie I just scale the window so it is playing back at this size. Then I save it. Now when the movie plays back in a browser window or in quicktime it will play at 640x480. Of course this won't work if you are embedding the movie, but you can embed at the scaled up size too. But that might only work best if you use a pop-up window, because that's kinda big for most web layouts.
You can see an example if you go to my site and click on the quicktime link and let the movie play back in the browser. All my movies are encoded at 320x240 and set to play back at double size. I compress at a fairly high bit rate so it doesn't look too bad.
