Why all of the different codecs? I can see the car and DJ purposes, but why so many others?

As I might have mentioned before, I have a friend who owns and operates a dance studio. We barter services, I get dance classes for my daughter and she gets me for editing all of the music and other audio and directing sound and lights at the recital.

When I mix the music tracks, I master it twice. There is a "recital mixdown" which needs to be as high quality as possible for the show, so I use FLAC there. But the files are huge, so I send the teachers a "rehearsal mixdown" which is in MP3 format and about one-fifth of the size.

Different tools for different jobs.

So ... in case anyone cares, the MP3 patents seem to have expired.

Fraunhitler has not applied for any renewals and is discontinuing the licensing program. MP3 is effectively an unencumbered format now.

I dont think most people have cared about the license for a long time.

Ah, 2017, when The Register hadn't yet gotten into the habit of criticizing USA policy from the perspective of their San Francisco office.
