Indeed "broadcast" quality is much better than "final". "Broadcast" introduce motion blur but it also has a higher anti-aliasing setting than "final". Here are a few examples (the thumbnails on the top right corner are 200% zoom of the base of the glass object).
The "maximum" image is a render with the best quality available in VUE (superior anti-aliasing / 25 subrays per pixels / 100% best quality threshold).
So always select "broadcast" rendering, it's as good as "ultra" but the rendering time is faster. In fact the difference between "broadcast" and "ultra" only appears when there are soft shadows in your scene : soft shadows need a very high anti-aliasing setting, otherwise they look noisy and grainy.
