We know satellite is going MPEG4. Is cable destined for that as well?

Anything that uses a real-time encoder. Right now, satellite is the major user of H.264 real-time encoders. IPTV will probably be next, followed by cable. ATSC will be the last.

Cable will have to go to H.264 eventually because of 1080p@60. I know there's a lot of naysayers about 1080p@60, but it's going to happen, and soon. This whitepaper claims that 1080p@60 only takes 20% more bandwidth.
