Comparison table of freeware video converters?

[alvey]

I do a lot of DVD >> avi & vice versa conversions and have used any number of apps over the years and while this site is excellent for news, views & products, imo there's a couple of bits of key info missing on conversion product info. Namely, the time taken & quality of output. Of course the latter is subjective, but there's also a few other column headers worth adding. Anyhoo, with the plethora of free converters now available I went Googling to see if there was a site that does this 'direct comparison' type of review but couldn't find one that did freeware. Does anyone know of one? Or will I have to do it myself?
