Amazing, a shit-quality sub-SD rip is smaller than a high quality 1080p HD sub!

Next thing you'll tell me that Blu-rays are larger than DVDs.

Also, nevermind the fact that Xvid needs as much as 6 times the filesize as x264. And that's ignoring the effect of hardsubs, which can easily add 30% to the filesize.

Now, if you're complaining that stupid fansubbers are using far more bitrate than they need to--that's not at all unreasonable, because they do; most SD anime needs at most ~50MB per episode.
