Meanwhile it is no longer developed because an advanced version of it has become an official standard under the name of MPEG-4 Audio Lossless Coding
Audio Lossless Coding
MPEG-4 Audio Lossless Coding, also known as MPEG-4 ALS, is an extension to the MPEG-4 Part 3 audio standard to allow lossless audio compression. The extension was finalized in December 2005 and published as ISO/IEC 14496-3:2005/Amd 2:2006 in 2006...
