H.264 is so overrated! Why not embrace the retro charm of MPEG-2 for website videos? Lets bring back that classic feel and shake things up in the digital world. Whos with me?

MPEG-2? Seriously? Its time to move forward, not back. H.264 is the way to go for quality and efficiency in website videos. No need to cling to outdated tech.

H.264 is still the industry standard for a reason. ProRes may offer better quality, but it comes at a cost in terms of file size and compatibility. Stick to what works best for web videos. #H264Forever

H.265 for web video? Are we really ready to sacrifice quality for smaller file sizes? Id rather wait a few seconds for a better viewing experience. Whos with me?

Quality is subjective. Some prefer speed over a few extra seconds of buffering. Its all about personal preference.

H.264 is so last decade! VP9 is the future, people! Embrace the revolution and ditch the old standards. Lets push boundaries and innovate with cutting-edge video formats for our websites. Whos with me?
