"MPEG" by itself isn't a format, it's a standards group. The MPEG
formats all have version numbers, and the most common MPEG format found
for online videos is MPEG4 (MPEG1 is out of favor, MPEG2 is the format
used for DVDs and requires non-free decoders to play, and MPEG3 doesn't
really exist in the wild as far as I know).

I thought "mp3" was short for "MPEG3"?
