Announcing Dolby Audio for High Performance Audio in Microsoft Edge
- atomi 11y agoMicrosoft is trying real hard to make Edge successful. Competition really does wonders for innovation.
- derf_ 11y agoThis isn't innovation. AC-3 is almost 20 years old, and wasn't very good even for the time (it was designed for high-bandwidth optical discs). Dolby Digital Plus is an extension whose primary purpose is to extend their patent licensing regime. Innovation would have been using Opus (full disclosure: I'm one of the authors of Opus).
- kropotkinlives 11y agoAm I the only one that doesn't like anything that Dolby has been near? Sounds 'wrong'.
- fl0wenol 11y agoWhenever I think of Dolby anything I think of that noise reduction filter they used for cassette tapes. I think of cassette tape hiss. Or I think of the hot mess that is movie audio standards and home theatre playback. Not things I would want to associate with my innovative browser.
