A colleague of mine who works on network video transmission says:
"Assuming we are talking about streaming, acceptable broadcast quality
full motion compressed video requires an average bit rate of about
4-6 Mbps (for MPEG-2). Below that the quality gets bad. A higher bit
rate of course gives better quality."
