ABSTRACT:
A method of packetizing digital audio information includes separating a digital audio sample into at least one most significant bit and at least one least significant bit. The most significant bit(s) of the digital audio sample are placed into an most significant bit packet that has a high transmission priority. The least significant bit(s) of the digital audio sample are placed into an least significant bit packet that has a low transmission priority.
