This is mostly about the business side of things. Many of our customers are encoding to multiple formats to deliver a better user experience and we wanted our pricing to adapt.

Technically, we encode all of the outputs for a file in parallel across multiple transcoding servers. We're looking for ways to reduce the number of steps involved in moving an input file through the system which may result in some sort of forking of the decode to multiple simultaneous encodes, but that remains to be seen.
