macOS (pronounced; previously Mac OS X, then OS X) is the current series of Unix-based graphical operating systems developed and marketed by Apple Inc. designed to run on Apple's Macintosh computers ("Macs"), having been preinstalled on all Macs since 2002.

Within the market of desktop, laptop and home computers, and by web usage, it is the second most widely used desktop OS after Microsoft Windows.

Linux (pronounced or, less frequently) is a Unix-like computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution.

The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds.

The Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to describe the operating system, which has led to some controversy.

MPEG-1 and/or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III, more commonly referred to as MP3 (or mp3), is an audio coding format for digital audio which uses a form of lossy data compression, which are data encoding methods that use inexact approximations and partial data discarding to reduce file sizes significantly, typically by a factor of 10, in comparison with a CD, yet still sound like the original uncompressed audio to most listeners.

Compared to CD quality digital audio, MP3 compression commonly achieves 75 to 95% reduction in size.

MP3 files are thus 1/4 to 1/20 the size of the original digital audio stream.

This is important for both transmission and storage concerns.

The basis for such comparison is the CD digital audio format which requires 1411200 bit/s.

A commonly used MP3 encoding setting is CBR 128 kbit/s resulting in file size 1/11 (=9% or 91% compression) of the original CD-quality file.

YouTube is an American video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California.

The service was created by three former PayPal employees—Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim—in February 2005.

Google bought the site in November 2006 for US$1.65 billion; YouTube now operates as one of Google's subsidiaries.

The site allows users to upload, view, rate, share, add to favorites, report and comment on videos, subscribe to other users, and it makes use of WebM, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, and Adobe Flash Video technology to display a wide variety of user-generated and corporate media videos.

Available content includes video clips, TV show clips, music videos, short and documentary films, audio recordings, movie trailers and other content such as video blogging, short original videos, and educational videos.

In signal processing, data compression, source coding, or bit-rate reduction involves encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation.

Compression can be either lossy or lossless.

Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

No information is lost in lossless compression.

Lossy compression reduces bits by removing unnecessary or less important information.
