and tomorrow yet another format will need 500k, no this is not ok, fix the
code, so that get/release_buffer() is used by the audio codecs to alloc
the buffer, and no a codec internal buffer which chops it below 192k is not 
ok either, actually thats a even worse hack

In the past you could go to a library and read, borrow or copy any book
Today you'd get arrested for mere telling someone where the library is
