# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' 
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary
# to leave one space after the ':'.

musepack: Musepack (Open source lossy audio codec)
musepack:
musepack: Musepack is an  audio  compression format with a strong emphasis  on
musepack: high quality. It's not lossless, but it is designed for transparency
musepack: so that you won't be  able  to hear differences between the original
musepack: wave file and the much smaller  MPC file. It  is based on the MPEG-1
musepack: Layer-2 / MP2 algorithms, but since 1997 it  has  rapidly  developed
musepack: and  vastly  improved  and  is  now at an advanced stage in which it
musepack: contains heavily optimized and patentless code.
