The present invention provides a method and a system with which information embedded in compressed digital audio data can be directly operated. An embodiment of the system for embedding additional information in compressed audio data includes: means for extracting MDCT (Modified Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficients from the compressed audio data; means for employing the MDCT coefficients to calculate a frequency component for the compressed audio data; means for embedding additional information in the frequency component obtained in a frequency domain; means for transforming into MDCT coefficients the frequency component in which the additional information is embedded; and means for using the MDCT coefficients, in which the additional information is embedded, to generate compressed audio data.
