codec quality

the horse itself - displaying considerable wisdom - is *not* sugarcoating anything. rather,
technical issues are being discussed frankly, shortcomings included.

for those who are used to marketing blabber and will take any internal criticism of a *work in
progress* as a sign of total obsolescence, the horse kindly spells it out for you in the
preamble:

>  "This document does *not* say [...] Theora is doomed or hopelessly obsolete. It says the
current encoder is lacking compared to the very very best."

>  "Don't forget kids, this isn't a fight about *technology*. It's a fight about *control*."

nobody is doubting that your favourite codec has a bigger dick than mine. that is not the
point.
