Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it himself - A. H. Weiler
cyril7: This is more apparent with MP2 video coding, ever wondered how over time sky keep putting more channels in to a spectrum but the pictures dont get dramatically worse and your decoder was never changed.
Doing your best is much more important than being the best.
A TV industry insider tells me that they use a gadget called a "Stat Mux" to cram more channels in. IIRC, this means Statistical Multiplexer, and relies on not all channels requiring the full bandwidth of a mux or satellite transponder at any given time.
However, in Sky's case, the compression on some channels like BBC World is so great, the picture increasingly looks like crap. Recently I downloaded BBC Click via iPlayer and was amazed at how much better it looked.
