I sent my Gmail account a 53kB AMR sound file (about 1 minute of audio) from my phone and when it showed up in my Gmail inbox the attachment was a ~512kB WAV file (mono, 8-bit).

The Bills begin their over-the-border shenanigans.

[Via Scotbuff] I can’t figure out whether this is sinister or genius.
