It is interesting to see how the iTunes Media Store works for video content. When starting the *music* store the thing was to give consumers equal or better quality, depending on how it is measured, easier, faster and legally. Now with the video content the quality issue is totally different, the illegal sources give superior quality.

But as January brings us the *real* video iPod, maybe it will bring us better quality downloads (both video and audio AAC+ and revised bitrate)

Yes, the previous paragraph is purely wishful thinking :)
