right back to business, in that humanistic vein; we're wont to stray off
topic, which in math means "you said something other than first order
predicate logic". So let's return.
If you look at the real audio signals out there, which statistic would
you expect them to follow under the Shannonian framework? A flat one? Or
alternatively, what precise good would it do to your analysis, or your
code, if you went with the equidistributed, earlier, Hartley framework?
Would it help you make "mp5" terser than mpeg-2 layer 3, or especially
AAC? If so, howso?
