how can you shrink down a movie to 800mb? thats crazy. One of these movies from limewire was only 800mb and it was decent quality. (im not a pirate though because i went out the next day and bought the dvd) So im wondering, how do you get a dvd that small while keeping decent quality?

thanks

The movie would have been in AVI format. An AVI is just a container for the file, much like a rar. When that AVI is encoded, you are actually decompressing it. You could not maintain any kind of quality if the file was encoded to a small size. More bitrate equals a larger encoded file but better quality.
