Choosing Bit Rates:
Bit rates represent the speed of a stream of information and are described in
"kbps" meaning "kilobytes per second." When choosing bit rates, keep in mind your
end user. and understand that, generally, the lower the bit rate, the lower the quality,
while higher bit rates afford higher quality. Here are some sample bit rates and usages:
--28kbps and 56kbps for Dial-up end users.
--112kbps offers good quality; requires ISDN.
--256kbps provides better quality; requires cable/DSL or better connectivity.
--384kbps provides excellent quality when viewing media at 1/4 screen and even 1/2 screen; requires DSL connectivity.
