Discretion: An Introduction

Anything but wav and mp3 support seems a bit overkill imho. BUT if there was a simple built in player that could utilize dll codecs, then that might be neat. Not sure how that would work cross platform, nor how it would work if people are proposing to push various formats from the server side...

 

mp3 just seems plenty universal and with the proper settings could fill many needs far more than wav ever could. Its not like you need Lame VBR V0 settings in this sort of realm lol. Simple low bitrate mp3's could save tons of BW for servers...

 

Midi support is interesting, but at the same time a bit antiquated. Although BW savings could be even greater and there's tons of .mid's out there. I have a feeling though, that if both are available mp3/midi...then people will opt to use mp3 more often.

 

Midi is an impenetrable format, with mp3 you can splice and dice with free editors everywhere.
