As video and audio compression technology has
been developed and refined, it has become increasingly
easier to produce high-quality video with a minimum of
technical expertise. Instead of high-tech, Hollywood
production studios exclusively being able to produce quality
video for the Web, now even the most casual users can
produce top-notch video.
