Editing With Pages
One of the common uses of Ogg pages is for editing Ogg files without the loss of quality or processing expense involved in transcoding.
Any series of pages within a stream can be preceded by the stream's header pages (pages with an absolute granule position of 0) and be decoded properly by media players. This technique can be used to losslessly crop a media file.
Multiple cropped segments can be appended to each other with a process known as chaining provided that the serial numbers of these segments are modified to unique numbers. New content can also be inserted between these segments.

Famous quotes containing the words editing and/or pages:
“In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“Writing long books is a laborious and impoverishing act of foolishness: expanding in five hundred pages an idea that could be perfectly explained in a few minutes. A better procedure is to pretend that those books already exist and to offer a summary, a commentary.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
