Lossless (Lossless Compression, Nonlossy Compression) - (Associated with Data Compression Algorithms, Lossy Data Compression, Audio Compression, Graphic Compression, Video Compression, Lossless Compression Methods, Lossless Compression Techniques) - In lossless compression codecs are used to decrease digital media content file size and bit rate (which is the amount of data per second that is required to render audio and video content). With lower bit rates and smaller file sizes, digital media content can be stored and streamed over a network more quickly and easily. However during this lossless compression process the file typically loses less quality than during lossy compression.
