Advantage of tape over MD?

(Stewart Pinkerton) wrote in message ...

AAC and MP3 *are* Fraunhoffer algorithms................

First, whilst one could agree that Fraunhoffer did develop the MP3
format and its first implementation on their own , I think that's not
the case of AAC format, where other companies participated too in the
development.

Second, I was talking about encoders, or compressors. Both a encoder
and a decoder and its algorithms do not need to share any code from
Fraunhoffer, they just need to conform to the standard. LAME encoder
is said not to have a single line of code written from Fraunhoffer
developers, and is considered to be superior to Fraunhoffer encoders
at bitrates over 128 kbps.

Agreed that AAC is likely the best of the bunch.

True. And ATRAC would be at the bottom.
