Xiph.Org is pleased to announce that we've completed _Digital Show &
Tell_, our second major video on digital media. This time we explore
multiple facets of digital audio signals and how they really behave in
the real world.

Demonstrations of sampling, quantization, bit-depth, and dither show
digital audio behavior on real audio equipment using both modern
digital analysis and vintage analog bench equipment... just in case we
can't trust those newfangled digital gizmos.  You can also download
the source code for each demo and try it all for yourself!

Like our previous video, _A Digital Media Primer for Geeks_, _Show &
Tell_ moves fast and only glances on a number of rather important
topics, so we've also set up a Wiki to get more information, ask
questions, and debate.

We hope you enjoy it, and Happy Hacking!
