Actually, I've got quite a few HD rips (4GB+). The difference (bit rate, resolution, ...) is quite obvious of course. (Similar to DVDs with 5GB vs. BlueRays with 30GB).
I just don't want to convert existing movies, I want to use them "as is".
I'd be fine with an option "format to FAT32 or format to Ext3" for example. Not being able to do it on the mobile device, but having to use a PC simply is extremely inconvenient and kind of contradicts "mobility".
