Answer:
Yes, these things can be considered a computer. And they can also store and process data.
Explanation:
Headphones, radios, dishwashers, and remote controls are all computers because they all have some sort of logic board inside the device to control what it does. Example, a dishwasher has internal components that it uses to keep track of how long the wash/rinse cycle have lasted and how long they are supposed to last.
I hope that helps!
Was this in reference to literal audio archives? If so, I don't see any cons beside possible copyright infringement.
If you're talking about the codecs themselves, then I can do that.
<span>Pros:
</span>- Widespread acceptance. Supported in nearly all hardware devices, and continually adopted by newer ones.
- Faster decoding. Much more so than FLAC, Vorbis, etc.
- Relaxed licensing schedule.
<span>Cons:
</span><span>
</span>- Lower quality and efficiency than most modern codecs. (To be fair, never really noticed this one).
- Sometimes the maximum bitrate isn't enough.
- Pretty much void/unusable for high definition audio (higher than <span>48kHz).</span>
