Call for codec backgrounders

Reading Kush's primer on H.264 pointed a spotlight at a gap in the documentation available for Premiere Pro and for Adobe Media Encoder: we haven't made much background material available about the various codecs and their various uses. With the explosive growth, in recent years, of the number of codecs, a central listing of resources explaining them would seem a welcome thing for users of Premiere Pro.

Can you recommend any online articles, white papers, primers, or tutorials expalning your favorite codecs? Send me their urls. I could add them to a codecs page in Premiere Pro Help, or link to them from the Premiere Pro Help and Support page, or blog about them, or all of the above.
