QuickSync is pretty junky in the quality department.

Tech Report did a comparison (which wasn't the best in the rigorous quality department itself either) a while back which showed this.  It is quite fast, but it is essentially a black box with no control over quality settings.

Still, for some needs, you don't much care and just want it to be fast.  So, generally, I'm with you.  Not a bad thing at all.
