Scientists at Japanese consumer electronics giant Kenwood have figured out
how to make compressed digital music files like MP3s sound as good as the
CDs they were ripped from.

The technology, codenamed Supreme Drive, attempts to replace the high
frequency sound signals usually lost when music is first converted into
digital information and that data is then compressed. These lost higher
frequencies contain many of the more subtle harmonics produced by musical
instruments and voices that give them sonic colour.
