I don't know how it works (have never used it before), but as it is an Apple product, probably it transcodes all files to Quicktime format by default - but this is just an assumption. File size shouldn't be much bigger (or bigger at all) if you redirect the stream directly to a file. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
