This is not about music It’s about information ..and when all information is made of numbers: text, images, sound, video, animation.

Arithmetic E Expands into Employing Information Arithmetic

More than 200 sets of Encyclopedia Britannica in less than a minute. ...or hours of DVD-quality video E We’re overwhelmed by information. But is managing all of that information our biggest problem?
