For instance right now Opus is pretty much the king of all lossy codecs to my knowledge. It beats everyone at every bitrate across the board without exception at least down to 8kbps or so and can be used in various specialized uses such as realtime communication with low latency, not only latency-irrelevant uses such as streaming media.
one feature I like from optus is its Bitrate scalability
Unlike in the world of video where it's gone from h264 to h265 and VP9 to VP10
<Off-topic>
there is no video codec that can work at <9.6kbits and scale up
CCSDS (Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems)[1] has been looking into image codec for space use witch fit within ham radio bandwidths. in-theory a mjpeg-like format could be used, but the way the images are compressed (Pyramid-like), mpeg-dash-like makes better transmission sense, but then that destroys the image codec advance. :(
CCSDS has recommend H.264, but are looking for other video codec

I am aware Codec2's primary purpose is for realtime low bandwidth communication - yet I see nothing against using it as a storage method for space constrained primarily vocal media either, and i'd think the development assistance could help advance things faster and propagate use of it more widely, though now i'm getting redundant so i'll leave it at that. What say everyone, is this an idea so bad it should never be voiced again, or something worthy of consideration?
