Puristumattomina

Puristumattomina is a Finnish term that translates to "uncompressed" or "lossless" in English when referring to digital audio or video files. It describes a data format where no information has been discarded during the encoding process. This means that the audio or video quality of a puristumattomina file is identical to the original source material. Common examples of puristumattomina audio formats include FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) and ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec). In the context of video, puristumattomina formats are less common for everyday consumption due to their large file sizes, but they are used in professional editing and archival purposes. The primary advantage of puristumattomina files is their superior fidelity, making them ideal for audiophiles and professionals who require the highest possible quality. However, their main disadvantage is their significantly larger storage requirements compared to compressed, or "lossy," formats like MP3 for audio or H.264 for video. The choice between puristumattomina and lossy formats often depends on the user's priorities regarding sound/picture quality versus storage space and bandwidth.
