		sakawa on April 18, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: MP3 for Image Compression (2006) Curious enough, years ago I've seen a blog post where the author used PNG lossless compression for FLAC audios. Guess there should be a lot of room for improving both image and audio compression, even because we're still ending up using jpeg and mp3.

Isn't PNG just DEFLATE? You should get basically the same result by just gzipping it.
