Not sure where/what you're talking about, but here in the U.S.A, Dish
Network and DirecTV seem to put a max of 7 MPEG 4 HD
channels on a *transponder*.

Yup; at varying bit rates;  I worked for a program provider to both, and I
know just how fast the price goes up if you need enough signal to handle
even *slow* motion.  :-)

Cool.  Is information about who buys what, closely guarded?
If you have seen the effects of 'starving' content with fast motion, I'd be interested in hearing what that looked like.
I'm familiar with resolution vs. screen size vs. viewing distance factors, btw.

Thanks,
