In the early 2000s, internet bandwidth in France (ADSL) was expanding, but storage and transfer speeds were limited. A standard DVD contained roughly 4.7 to 9 GB of data, which was prohibitive to download. The emergence of the MPEG-4 Part 2 compression standard, popularized by the DivX codec (and later the open-source XviD), allowed users to compress a DVD movie to roughly 700 MB—the size of a standard CD-ROM.
