If you transfer via 1394 to a domestic DVD recorder it will encode as a
DVD - Mpeg 2. There will be loss of quality and the encoding will make
editing via PC harder.

If you don't want to edit, just archive I'd go with that as a solution
- easier and quicker than reeling it into a PC.

Best quality will be via 1394. Probably.
