Default HD or BluRay?

The physical layer of an OTA HD signal supports up to
21 Mb/s. That translates to about 20 GB in two hours.


My MPEG captures of very detailed OTA HD TV programs (a sports event, a

live
awards show) run about 4 GB every 40 minutes. That is 12 GB every 2 hours.


Which only proves how variable the definition of HD can be. Compress even
more, and when the block sizes become bigger than the scan lines, who is
fooling who I wonder?
