    You can use virtualdub to output to DivX AVI, TMPGENC to output to MPEG or Windows Movie Maker (XP) to output to WMV. Any of these will not lose quality if you have the right settings.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    Divx can be much smaller than a similar quality mpeg. Not sure about wmv.

    i don't know about real media, but I have had great results with DivX going down to about 10% the original file size with no noticeable quality loss.

    Real media is the red-headed step-child of conversion. I tried to get a feeling a while back about how many people were doing it... not many...
