The present invention relates generally to embedding and/or encoding auxiliary information within original data. For example, in one embodiment, a method of embedding auxiliary information in data is provided. The auxiliary information is not lost with compression of the embedded data. The embedded data initially includes a non-compressed form including the auxiliary information embedded therein. The method includes: (a) retrieving the auxiliary information from the non-compressed form of the embedded data; (b) compressing the non-compressed form of the embedded data; and (c) embedding the retrieved auxiliary information in the compressed embedded data, whereby the compressed embedded data comprises the auxiliary information embedded therein.
