very true...i sometimes forget to specify between the technical world and the trading world

what i was getting at was: a conversion done with pro-grade gear is not going to lead to the lossy degradation of quality that a typical collector doing the conversion at home on his/her PC

and what we typically see around here is freeware/consumer-level converters which cause *obvious* quality loss...that is the issue we have with format conversion in re: to collecting/seeding at the Den...because just about everything related to the video world is lossy
