Tiny music files almost as good as MP3 ones: Researchers at the University of Rochester have encoded a 20-second clarinet solo in a file smaller than a kilobyte. This is about 1,000 times smaller than regular MP3 files. But the sound is almost as good according to the scientists. The system works by 'recreating in a computer both the...; Tags: Researcher, MP3, Modeling, Computer, Music, Research & Development, Productivity, Business Operations, Roland Piquepaille; Blog posts 2008-04-02
