I've been listening to tapes from the 91 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference
in the area of audio-video integration, and I'm floundering soemwhat with
some of the new jargon terms.

Can someone explain in words of few syllables what:

quantization and dithering are please?

Forgive me if the terms are pedestrian to you, but they're new to me.

Thanks
Ian Hill
