If they can't see the problem... then I would say it isn't a problem for 
them.

And I would not call these people "ignorant". I haven't seen anyone here 
who didn't want to learn about how something works. With the dozens of 
video formats and codecs in the world, it's not easy to know where to 
begin, especially since most books on digital video are either too 
generalized or assume you'll be using professional software.

Yeah, I have several video files that I didn't encode very well before I 
knew what I was doing. I didn't know I didn't do a good job because they 
look better than a lot of stuff I see on the Internet today.
