1000k is pushing it for full screen, although 1100k looks pretty good usually at 640x480 - particularly if it's well lit. the higher quality the lighting, the lower bitrate you can get away with - again, imo. i tried our high videos at 1200k and it just didn't look as good as the video we ended up with, which is 1599k.
what about you? when you're watching a porn movie - not when it's your site and you're paying for bandwidth - at what bitrate do YOU consider a high quality video? or if you don't know bitrates, how clear and sharp does video have to be before you consider it high quality?
