8 bit vs 10 bit
Difference in Quality 0
Difference in Size up to 70% more compression at 0 quality loss.
10 bit in laymans terms just has better compression efficiency especially when one is dealing with reference frame compression, problem with 10 bit is, not many hardware decoders such as TV's and Media players support it, as it needs a software decoder.
10 bit has been around for longer than 2 years, but due to it being finicky with playback most sub groups just use standard 8 bit.
