Amen Brother.Ignorance is bliss. Knowledge is powerAnyone whining about the video quality should check out y0utube. Now that's a hive of crap video compression right there, but at least the community is-- for the most part-- more friendly and less nit-picky.
That's all I have to say.

That's because if people like Naruto, and they see a Naruto video, they'll give it praise no matter how poorly it's edited. If they like Linkin Park and they see a Linkin Park video, they'll like it no matter how poorly it's edited. If they see a Naruto/Linkin Park video and they like BOTH, then my God, you won't hear the end of how great the video is.
Nit-pickiness isn't a sin. If anything it helps you get better as an editor.
As for the video quality...seriously, if you actually listened to what JaddziaDax had to say, and tried any of the methods for compression that she suggested, you'd realize that you can get MUCH better quality than .wmv. Seriously. This isn't theory. Look around at any well-compressed video on this site and you'll realize that .wmv is not the best codec available. Have you ever considered that maybe you're just not doing it right?
We're not being elitist, you're being egotistical, etc.
