The reason my files are so big is they are captured right out of the camera with VirtualDub at .avi, HQ broadcast grade right from the Sony XDHD cam.
Since they do everything for me at both stations I shoot for I don't have as much experience as I should with the different formats as well as editing although I made a comment to Bill Holtby at GTR that I would learn to edit by next year's regionals, well I guess I'm learning to edit
I used sony vegas movie studio 8 and rendered one of the files to mpeg2 and it didn't look as good, I then tried .wma and it looked quite good. I need to learn and experiment more and figure this all out.
I'll check out the link you posted once I get home, I'm on the blackberry now.
The last file should be up on 781 by 8:30pm.
I have the same rogers service as you I think and I'm uploading at 124k/s so could just be that we've slowed down the whole internet
If they won't download or are too big I suppose it could render them all to .wma's.
There is a fair bit of 1075 in almost each one of the GTR clips and more of 781 in the waterloo clips.
Then again if you're going to use the raw video to edit some promo videos together you have the HQ stuff so that's good.

EDIT: I'm currently downloading the ~200MB file, and getting 60Kb/sec on my Rogers 10Mbps service... The strain on team781.com's server must be pretty big.
Re-EDIT: VirtualDubMod can be found here, is free and open-source, I believe.
