About MP3

The making of MP3 files by recording from sources such as broadcasts, records, recordings, videos and live performances without permission from the copyright holder for uses other than personal enjoyment is prohibited.

What is MP3?

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III) is a standard format for audio compression technology. By using MP3 a file can be compressed to one-tenth the size of the original.

This equipment has limitations on MP3 file standards and recorded media and formats that can be used.

ID3 tag

MP3 files have an "ID3 Tag" that allows input of information so that data such as song title and artist can be saved.

This deck supports ID3v. 1.0, 1.1, 2.2 and 2.3 tags.

Media

Media capable of playing MP3 includes CD-R and CD-RW discs. Compared to CD-ROM media commonly used for music discs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are fragile in high temperature/high humidity environments and one section of the CD-R and CD-RW may become incapable of playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause skipping during playback. Sections of a CD-R and CD-RW may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of time. It is also recommended that CD-R and CD-RW discs be kept in a light-blocking case because the discs are vulnerable to ultra-violet light.
