LEAD Vorbis Audio Codec
The LEAD Vorbis Audio Codec is a DirectShow filter for compressing and decompressing audio data using the Vorbis compression algorithm. Vorbis is an audio compression method used to store digital music or any audio data. The compressed audio data can be stored inside AVI or Ogg files.
Compared to MP3 compressed audio files, Vorbis based compression produces audio files that maintain a higher sound quality and/or a smaller compressed size. For example, you have the option of keeping your digital music collection at the same sound quality level as MP3, but requiring significantly less disk space. Or, you can commit the same amount of storage (disk space) as your MP3 based files, however your digital music will have higher quality sound.
