I'm still trying to answer this question myself. :-) I'll let you know
how HCodec's AudioData format actually works in practice once I my
code is converted.

Honestly, an ideal format should allow iteration over one or more
StorableArray chunks. This would make it much easier to interact with
the outside world. Unfortunately, HCodec's DiffUArray format seems to
require a conversion step to get a StorableArray, so I'm going to have
to benchmark it.

Good luck with your first Haskell library!

Cheers,
Eric
