Bonk is a an audio compression program that operates in both lossy and lossless modes. The compression method Bonk uses is quite simple compared to other lossy formats (such as MP3), and is based on speech compression techniques. It is nevertheless capable of producing a high compression ratio... Platforms: *nix

Similarity is a useful program that helps you to find and remove similar, duplicate musical files (MP3, WMA, OGG, ASF, WAV, FLAC, APE, WV) with the same or similar sound content, music tags (ID3,WMF,Vorbis). This is the best program where similarity of a sound part is checked, not just music tags... Platforms: Windows

BartMark Bitmap Encoder allows you to encode text messages into color or monochrome bitmap images. The encoding is key based, meaning you must have a number to encode and decode a message. Encoded bitmaps can be converted to/from various non-lossy formats such as TIFF uncompressed or PNG. If you... Platforms: Windows
