http://www.webmproject.org/ If anyone wants to run some test encodes against x264 and let us know what the results are, that would be rad, otherwise I'll get to that in the next few days.

Read this: http://x264dev.multimedia.cx/?p=377 Seems VP8 isn't even close to H.264 (especially x264) in terms of format, quality, size, or speed. Also, with H.264, the patent issue is clear. VP8 is a patent nightmare waiting to happen.
