    The main difference is that you need to pay TMPGenc Xpress, and Plus works 'free' only to make MPEG-1 (VCD) files.
    TMPGenc Xpress has beautiful plugins (AC3 reader), but I didn't see expecial features in terms of quality or speed...

    What is best? I think Plus. It has a free version which you can use to evaluate it, it's more simple, once you learned some tricks (like uncompressing the AC3 stream of an AVI with an external program - BeSweet or HeadAC3he - if it has AC3 audio, to WAV and load it as 'audio input' with Plus).

    I prefer TMPGEnc Plus 2.5
    XPress 3.0 is too complicated to understand to use. Plus 2.5 is easier to use and works fine.
