Neat article about audio compression.
This guy isolates the audio
[and video!] lost in compression to mp3.
Apparently Tom's Diner by
Suzanne Vega was one of the reference songs used to test mp3 compression.
The MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Layer III
standard, more commonly referred to as MP3, has become a nearly ubiquitous
digital audio file format. First published in 1993, this codec implements a
lossy compression algorithm based on a perceptual model of human hearing. Listening
tests, primarily designed by and for western-european men, and using the music
they liked, were used to refine the encoder.
Nice comment about equity too!
