I'm aware of that. I should have added the word "general" in "other formats" to make the meaning more clear. > A quick test of 7z on music gave 77% of the original size, and flac was 49%. Yes, that's why we have FLAC -- because it's heavily optimized for audio input. And that's why I was trying to explain Harry that using FLAC for something other than music is silly. -Ivo _______________________________________________ Flac mailing list Flac@xiph.org http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac
