With bandwidth and data storage increasing rapidly for most people, have you
stopped to ask WHY?
I predict 128-256kbs MP3/WMA/AAC etc may improve, but see no demand for any
thing lower.

Mr. T, why do you keep replying to my posts?? Did I miss some
important event during my 6-month absence from rec.audio, such as you
coming out of the closet or something?

About justification, what about 22.1 audio that will come with
ultrahigh-definition video on HVDs? I'm listening to a .MOD right now,
vocals and everything, 16 channels and only 20 kbps.


That's not a fair comparison. That's like comparing a MIDI file to
a .WAV and asking why .WAV can't be that small. They're completely
different methods of producing audio.


MIDI has no vocals

What do you guys think? Will there be a successor to the current state-
of-the-art AAC codec, or do people not give a damn about compression
no more since FLACs and high-bitrate MP3s nowadays download in less
than a minute even in ****ty 3rd world countries? On the other hand,


Jesus, I wish. I'm in Australia and I'd have a hard time getting a FLAC
down in that time :-) We suck!


So do yourself a favor and move outta that desert ********.
