Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Data compression can dramatically decrease the amount of storage a file takes up. For example, in a 2:1 compression ratio, a 20 megabyte (MB) file takes up 10 MB of space. As a result of compression, administrators spend less money and less time on storage.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are rare lossless formats for video since they would take up massive amounts of space. Lossy: By this type of file compression, a decompressed file is smaller in size than the original file. That’s because lossy compression reduces file size by removing unnecessary bits of information.
