[vorbis-dev] lossless ogg encoding with good compression rate

[8ut3ww302 at sneakemail.com]

Vorbis + error may not be a good way to do lossless compression, but has 
anybody put any thought into a DCT- or wavelet-base lossless 
compression?  Just curious, my understanding is that existing lossless 
codecs are based on one form or another of predictive coding and an 
error correction.  Would some sort of integer transform (I can see 
floats being evil in a lossless situation) provide decent compression?
