Description	The H.264/264 video format was developed to provide good quality video at a lower bitrate level. The format has a large range of applications that attempt to cover video solutions from Internet streaming applications through to HDTV broadcasting with near lossless coding.

Technical Details	H.264/264 contains a number of features that allow it to compress video more effectively than previously. The main advantage of H.264 is the compression rate which is about twice as effective as MPEG-4. The image quality is a lot better and as such playback is more fluent, added to this the lower bit rate for network transmission means that it is widely adopted.

File extension	.mp3
Category	Music File
Description	MP3 is a digital music format which allows CD tracks to be reduced to around a tenth of their normal size without a significant loss of quality. MP3 gets rid of a lot of the information recorded in a song that our ears are not able to hear and then uses complex algorithms to reduce the file size. This then enables you to get hundreds of songs on to a CD and it also has opened up a new market over the internet - the download market as download times have been significantly reduced.

Technical Details	The MP3 format is a lossy format. That means that an MP3 file does not contain 100% of the original audio information. Instead, MP3 files use perceptual coding. In other words, that means it removes the information that your ear doesn't notice thereby making the file smaller. The reason lossy formats are used over RAW is that RAW audio files are too large to travel over the internet at any great speed. By using lossy formats it enables even dial up users to download mp3 files at a reasonable speed. RAW file formats generally require 176,000 bytes per second compared to a lossy format which requires 17,600. The difference is massive and so are the download times.
