### Why Opus?
### Why Opus in Go?
* **open and royalty-free** - No license fees or restrictions. Use it as you wish!
* **versatile** - Wide bitrate support. Can be used in constrained networks and high quality stereo.
* **ubiquitous** - Used in video streaming, gaming, storing music and video conferencing.
### Why a Go implementation?
* **empower interesting use cases** - This project also exports the internals of the Encoder and Decoder.
Allowing for things like analysis of a Opus bitstream without decoding the entire thing.
* **learning** - This project was written to be read by others. It includes excerpts and links to [RFC 6716](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc6716/)
* **safety** - Go provides memory safety. Avoids a class of bugs that are devastating in sensitive environments.
* **maintainability** - Go was designed to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
* **portability** - A Pure Go implementation makes it easier to build for other platforms. Using libopus from Go prevents cross compilation.
### Running
