MPEG-4 with the H.264 is a completely open standard format. It is the
Fairplay DRM Apple adds to it that is proprietary. The same thing is
done with WMV by Microsoft. You can't play WMV on a video iPod though.
As for burning iTunes Music Store videos on a DVD - not gonna happen
(without a hack that is)
Here's a link straight from the keynote when it was announced....
