Ed Pellow Help: Audio Compression (not MP3) (6) Audio Compression (not MP3) 25 Jul 00

I've recently bought a bootleg CD Rom of the entire Beatles catalogue.

The files are .wav files, and beyond reducing the 44.1khz sampling rate by half to 22.05khz, there seems no other reduction in quality. They are still 16 bit recordings.

Can someone explain how so much material has been squeezed onto a 650mb disc?

Ed

- who already owns all the recordings in various other formats - in case anyone was going to moan...
