Depends on the channel broadcast quality I suppose. Not all channels in HD (or SD) take up the same HDD space even when all are in MPEG2 format.

So there would still be variables in size when HD swap to MPEG4.

Connecting that back to this thread, even when MPEG4 happens for all HD channels I doubt it'll be a direct halving of the bandwidth used.
