contents Given a II$_1$ factor $M$, a W$^*$-subalgebra $Q\subset M$ is {\it compressible} if for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a finite set of unitary elements $\Cal U_0\subset \Cal U(M)$ such that $\| \frac{1}{|\Cal U_0|}\sum_{u\in \Cal U_0} uxu^* -E_{1\otimes \Bbb M_K(\Bbb C)}(x)\|\leq \varepsilon$, $\forall K\geq 1$, $\forall x\in (Q\otimes \Bbb M_K(\Bbb C))_1$. Any W$^*$-subalgebra $Q$ in a II$_1$ factor $M$ which admits a diffuse W$^*$-algebra $Q_0\subset M$ that's free independent to $Q$, is compressible in $M$. We prove that if $Q\subset M$ is compressible, then $_NL^2M_Q$ contains a copy of the coarse $N-Q$ bimodule for any AFD subalgebra $N\subset M$. We use this result to provide examples of inclusions of factors $M\subset \Cal M$ that are ergodic but not AFD-ergodic, even after stabilizing by $\Cal B(\ell^2\Bbb N)$.

Given a II$_1$ factor $M$, a W$^*$-subalgebra $Q\subset M$ is {\it compressible} if for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a finite set of unitary elements $\Cal U_0\subset \Cal U(M)$ such that $\| \frac{1}{|\Cal U_0|}\sum_{u\in \Cal U_0} uxu^* -E_{1\otimes \Bbb M_K(\Bbb C)}(x)\|\leq \varepsilon$, $\forall K\geq 1$, $\forall x\in (Q\otimes \Bbb M_K(\Bbb C))_1$. Any W$^*$-subalgebra $Q$ in a II$_1$ factor $M$ which admits a diffuse W$^*$-algebra $Q_0\subset M$ that's free independent to $Q$, is compressible in $M$. We prove that if $Q\subset M$ is compressible, then $_NL^2M_Q$ contains a copy of the coarse $N-Q$ bimodule for any AFD subalgebra $N\subset M$. We use this result to provide examples of inclusions of factors $M\subset \Cal M$ that are ergodic but not AFD-ergodic, even after stabilizing by $\Cal B(\ell^2\Bbb N)$.
