Pulse Code Modulation
<data> (PCM) A method by which an audio signal is represented as digital
data.
Virtually all digital audio systems use PCM, including, CD, DAT, F1 format, 1630
format, DASH, DCC, and MD. Many people get confused because "PCM" is also slang
for Sony's F1 format which stores PCM digital audio on videotape.
