The best one available today is the Sorsenson Squeese program from http://www.sorensonmedia.com/ it has the best compression and can convert between media types. We use it for the http://movies.gearboxgamezone.com/ website and for The Halo CE Chronicles videos http://hcec.halomaps.org/ The full suite is about $500.00.

The decision to re-encode the video is an arbitary one. Meaning if I think the video is good then I'll re-encode it to other formats. Or if I think the video is worth hosting by the file size is too large I will re-encode it. There are no real rules other than my opinion and the amount of time I have to spend on it.
