	Fortunately, you already have your sound in digital form.  That
	means that you can used any compaction scheme used on digital
	information.

	I would recommend a Huffman Code, for starters.  A standard
	reference is:

	Gallager, Robert G. *Variations on a Theme of Huffman.*
	I.E.E.E. Transactions on Information Theory, vol IT-24, no. 6,
	Nov 1978, pp. 668-674.
