Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for managing storage of digital content. An eligibility module determines one or more content elements that are eligible for compression. A content element is determined to be eligible for compression based on one or more characteristics of the content element. A rate module determines a compression rate for each of the one or more content elements. The compression rate comprises an amount of compression to be applied to a content element. The amount of compression to be applied to the content element is determined as a function of one or more characteristics of the content element. A compression module compresses each of the one or more eligible content elements according to the determined compression rate.
