gollark: I think it's separate, and a 32 minute one is 11.52MB.
gollark: I've got a playback program which loads tapes from chests, reads their metadata, and randomly picks tracks to play, then loads the relevant tape, seeks a bit and plays to the end. It switches in a second or so so it's actually not that awful.
gollark: That would probably work. Opus is the best thing around now and the quality would be *okay* at 48kbps.
gollark: I mean, it would probably be significantly bigger if you just ran PCM audio through a general purpose compression algorithm.
gollark: Who knows.
