[sdiy] Paul Schreiber on youtube

[Pete Hartman]

I think the video of Paul going around explains it better than I will, but
the short form is that there's a proprietary algorithm that converts sample
data into a format that is based on models of the human vocal tract.  This
gives an amazing degree of compression.  He had to get permission from TI
Legal just to use the existing, already converted data that's out there (or
more accurately the subset of it that they let him use), it seems likely
that asking that the code to actually do the conversion be released as open
source would have been a bridge too far, had he even asked.
