University Researchers Proclaim Compression Breakthrough

Engineers at the University of Rochester are now sharing details on a new compression concept, one that has achieved interesting early results. The team managed to squeeze a 20-second clarinet solo into roughly 1 kilobyte, or 1/1000th the equivalent capacity of an MP3. The researchers disclosed the accomplishment Wednesday at the International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing in Las Vegas. (Digital Music News, Geek.com)
