And as for speed - actually compressor can match or beat anything else when you use quickcluster to be able to use all of your processor cores.

For example - encoding a 45 minute DVCPRO HD file into h264 with timecode burn-in takes about 20 minutes on an 8 core machine. Not sure how it would react with windows media, but I can imagine it would help that too...

I have used episode as well and I like its more simple interface - but lately compressor has won me over with using quickclusters and the droplet feature. And it doesn't cost anything...
