the opus codec, stream over the net with style

i would like to point out that the opus codec has been released,

Opus is a totally open, royalty-free, highly versatile audio codec. Opus is unmatched for interactive speech and music transmission over the Internet, but also intended for storage and streaming applications. It is standardized by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as RFC 6716 which incorporated technology from Skype's SILK codec and Xiph.Org's CELT codec.

the ability of this codec to "look forward" and to compensate across many bands of broadband is interesting.
there are different bands defined and different stepped rates that can be adjusted to "on the fly"

this codec is a combination of two previous codecs designed to work in unison using a smart filter encoder to provide extra information to the decoder to provide a range of output formats depending on the bit stream achieved.

get ready for ultra clear and fast streaming content,
from voice to complex music, this will do the lot

its now formalised and ready for adoption

the interesting thing is that this codec could be used for other purposes

it has potential for cloud storage and could reduce some of the "load" from the servers that out lay this resource
