Sound : Recollection from the compression chapter
Sampling Rate / Digitisation
CD : 44.1 kHz
22kHz Useful enough for most people
Human Voice : 8kHz is enough
Quantisation / Range reduction
Remember Ravel's Bolero
16 or 8 bits x 2 (stereo) or number of channel
From 8 bits to 6 bits ...
Bit Rate : define the quality of the compression (128 kbps for instance)
Other reminder
Download vs Stream
Unicast vs Multicast
