Why is digital dictation better than analogue (tape) recording?
Analogue Audio Tapes are physical. As a result, they can be lost, misplaced, chewed or broken. From a management perspective, they are hard to identify and it is impossible to estimate the total number of files or audio duration Digital audio files do not require that the audio blocks exist in a sequential order which means additional audio can be inserted within an audio file. Additionally, they can be instantly sent across a network or e-mailed around the world. They are easy to identify, the audio duration is known for every file and they are not easily lost or misplaced.
