About MP3
The music compression technology MP3 (MPEG1 Audio
Layer 3) significantly reduce the digital data of an
audio CD while maintaining CD quality sound.
•Getting MP3 files:you can either download legal
music files from the internet to your computer hard
disc, or create such files by converting audio CD
files in your computer through appropriate encoder
software. (128kbps bit rate or higher is recommend-
ed for MP3 files.)
•Creating a MP3 CD: burn the music files from
your computer hard disc on a CDR or CDRW using
your CD burner.
Helpful hints:
– Make sure that the file names of the MP3 files end
with.mp3.
– Total number of music files and albums: around 350
(with a typical file name length of 20 characters)
– The length of file names affects the number of tracks
for playback. With shorter file names, more files can
be burned on a disc.
