Vid size and format recommendations for member's area

what are the standard recommendations for video size, format and type for member's downloads? Right now mine are only opening up as 'save as', before they used to open up in windows media when clicked..which is better?

Right now I'm offering 256k and 1024k windows media, and 512k real media. The file sizes are kind of big, I'm trying to save a bit of cash on disk space, just got a nasty bill for $350+ for extra disk space from my hosting company. I deleted my highdef movies after that...stupid idea to put them up in the first place.

Is quick time better? I'd love to know the industry standard and what is best for my customers. I haven't received any complaints about download time or size yet... the size of each is for a 5 min file: 256k=~10mb, 1024k=~40MB, rm 512=16mb. Also, am I offering *too* many options at my own expense?
