About MP3

MP3 (MPEG 1, Audio Layer 3) is a digital audio format for quick downloading files that sound similar in performance to CDs. MP3 uses entropy encoding to reduce the number of redundant sounds in an audio signal to a minimum. It takes music from a CD and reduces it by a factor of 12, with no noticeable loss of quality. Whereas a typical CD holds only 74 minutes of music you can store over 130 songs with MP3.

Disc information

Sampling rate should be 44.1 kHz and bit rate is recommended within the range from 128 Kbps to 256 Kbps, in order to achieve the best performance. In general, higher quality settings result in larger file sizes.

ATTENTION:

Due to unforeseen software compatibility issues, certain forms of disc media may not playback properly. This includes compressed media formats, i.e. MP3, JPEG files.
