MP3-CD and CD Operation

What is an MP3-CD?

MP3-CDs are CDs that contain MP3 music files. Approximately 200 files can fit on one 700MB CD — in comparison, a regular audio CD can fit approximately 20 tracks. Each MP3 file on the MP3-CD is recognized by the player as an audio track. The “Folder Up” and “Folder Down” make it easier to find and play a MP3-CD track.

This player can also play WMA music files. WMA files may be played in the same manner as MP3 files, however, some WMA files may contain restrictions (DRM). This player will not play DRM- protected WMA files.

If you own a computer equipped with a CD-R/RW burner and the appropriate mastering software, you may create your own MP3/WMA-CDs (see your burner or computer’s documentation for more infor- mation). When creating an MP3/WMA-CD, it is advisable to organize your music files in folders. The player will recognize these folders as “Albums”.
