Audio compressed using perceptual audio codecs.


Thanks for confirming you have no idea what audio compression is.



There are two forms of "audio compression" - one is dynamic range
compression, and the other is data compression. The latter is what I'd
always consider to be "audio compression", and I'd expect the former
to be called by its full name or be called "audio processing" or just
"processing".

The adoption of DAB was the most incompetent technical
decision ever made in the history of UK broadcasting:
