So in this industry, the transition will probably be much slower, if it ever happens.

Originally posted by Daktyl198 View PostThe thing about opus, though, is that it sounds better at lower bitrates than mp3/AAC does at higher bitrates. Because of this, you can have audio files that sound just as good, if not better, at half the file size. This can be pretty important in places like portable audio players (iPods, etc) or even just for people who have a very, very large music collection (going from 10GB down to 5GB, with better audio quality is a pretty damn big change).
But 10GB does not look large to me :P
