    In general, "Lossy" techniques achieve a higher degree of compression by reducing the overall quality of the image or sound. Some examples of "Lossy" compression techniques are: ? discrete cosine transform ? fractal compression ?

  • Digital Downloads and Compression Effect's on Society

    Images can be compressed in two ways, lossless and lossy. The difference between the two is that lossless files retain their data while lossy files lose data.

  • File Size Considerations in Web Design

    * Add lossy compression. The more lossy compression, the smaller the file size. Lossy compression discards visual information, which can reduce the file size. Traditionally, GIF was a lossless file format.
