What is MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression method and clas-
sified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.
This audio compression method has penetrated
into PC users and become a standard format.
This MP3 features the original audio data com-
pression to about 10 percent of its initial size
with a high sound quality. This means that about
10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc
or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time
without having to change CDs.
