I guess it depends on what you call "high-quality". I use Xvid or Divx to
compress most of my video. I'm very happy with what I would term VCR quality
videos (1.2kps at 320x480). That allows me to archive any 1 hour show on a
single CD-R.
If you are looking for CD quality Divx then you might want to go a bit
higher on the bitrate to handle higher resolutions.
120gb drives are a great price point right now. I'd go with that. Of course
you can always expand later.
Later,

Hey everyone. I was just wondering, if I plan on storing a significant
amount of high-quality recordings on MythTV, how big of a HD would you
recommend? 120GB? 200GB? Perhaps 300GB?
