Sandy:
Huh? Isn't FLAC a *compressed* format? Lossless != uncompressed.
Sorry, my confusion. The current Sound Theme spec only has supported
sound file formats for uncompressed and compressed formats.
I think most people who deal with audio care more about lossy versus
lossless formats than whether the data is compressed or not. Most
people would probably prefer compressed as a default due to the large
size of audio files.
I think the spec should, at the very least, include FLAC as the
recommended compressed lossless format and OGG/Vorbs as the
recommended compressed lossy format.
If people think an uncompressed lossless format has any value, then it
we should consider a better format than WAV, which has a 4 GB filesize
limitation, while Sony Media WAV 64 (W64) allows for longer recording
times.
