[X4U] Most advanced Video Codec WMV?

[Richard Gilmore]

I'm not sure what the criteria for "better" would be. Maybe smaller files
and better playback quality, efficiency, not sure? Do they look "better"
than QT/MPEG.x/H.264 for a file of similar size Mac vs. PC? Does a WMV "look
better" than a QT/MPEG.x/H.264 on just a PC?
