If I'm rendering something in an animation, it's to put it on a DVD. 
DVDs only support extremely low spatial resolutions. (Even with the new 
HD technologies which will one day become commonly available, resolution 
is still extremely low.) Small images don't take up much space.

Now, large stills for Zazzle can get pretty big...
