| I. New to MP3 |
1. About MP3 |
MP3s are digital audio files that have been shrunken down while still maintaining their original sound quality. Before there were MP3s, digital audio files took hours to download. But on a 56K modem, most MP3s can download in just a few minutes. MP3s are widely recognized as the most popular format for storing and listening to music on the World Wide Web.
MP3 music is better than CD music because it helps you better organize your music collection. With MP3, you can easily create playlists of choice: by artist, by genre, by mood, ... Plus, MP3 files are smaller than CD music. With a CD-R, you can store more than 100 songs or more than 10 hours of music.
MP3s are the format of choice! Unlike other proprietary formats such as Liquid Audio and Windows Media Audio, MP3 is an open standard, meaning no one corporation controls it. For this reason, there are more MP3 listeners, software programs and hardware devices than any other CD-quality audio format in the world.
