== Bitrate quality == ATRAC's 292 kbit/s bitrate<ref name="wb-minidisc-bitrate">{{cite web|last=Woudenberg|first=Eric|title=MiniDisc FAQ: Audio Topics|url=https://www.minidisc.org/faq_sec_4.html#_q21|access-date=2022-07-30}}</ref> used on the original MiniDiscs was designed to be near to CD audio quality. Years later ATRAC was improved over earlier versions at similar bitrates. For comparison, CDs are encoded at 1411.2 kbit/s, and lossless encoders can encode most CDs below 1000 kbit/s, with further bitrate reduction for easier-to-encode content such as voice.
