Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. MP3 won't be going anywhere, I'm sorry to say. The patents on the technology have expired (this is a *good* thing), but that's about it. what this *actually* means is that more open source software can start to actually make use of MP3 encoders

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. Yup, it's definitely a container, no doubt about it. A file with stereo channels, once it's bounced down to 2 channels, cannot be messed with. Once it's mixed, it's mixed. Whether it's an mp3, or a raw wave, once it's mixed, it's mixed. So mt9 is no

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. Which is essentially just stems in a single container. I wonder what artists and record labels would think of this new format. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=311274#p311274 ___

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. Mt9 is not a replacement for stems. Its a single file with more than two channels. And iusing a program you are able to mess with the channels. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=311176#p311176

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. This whole "story" is simply that Fraunhofer is no longer collecting royalties on the use of the format. I dispute the view that MP3 is obsolete, even if it isn't the most advanced technology there is, on the theory of its sheer and more-or-less

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. Interesting development [here], seems Fraunhofer is officially discontinuing all licensing for MP3 technology, effectively killing the MP3 format. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=311014#p311014

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. I would join in the questions here... especially since there's been no info posted about this file format, which, does indeed sound like nothing more than a container for multitrack stems which will probably not be supported by most media players

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. MP2 is basically the predecessor of MP3, and so its sound quality is worse at lower bit rates than MP3's is. However, there's a twist. MP2 will eventually outperform MP3 if the bit rate gets high enough, because of the differences in MP2's compression

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. What's the difference between mp2 and mp3? I haven't seen an mp2 for ages!ALso, come to think of it I haven't heard of an mt9 either. I don't think the big leagues will like this to be honest, they are still using m4a in the case of iTunes which is ok

Re: MP3 to become a thing of the past. Where exactly did this come from.  When looking it up, last stories I read about it were from 2008, and the last event the wikipedia article talks about regarding the format was in 2009, so this clearly did not replace mp3, although I wish it had.

MP3 to become a thing of the past. So mt9 will allow you to control each instrument of a song. You only want drums you can just have drums. You want a version with just the instrumental you can have no singing. It puts every instrument and the singers tracks on there own channel and you
