What is MP3?

MP3, whose official name is "MPEG Audio Layer
3", is a compression standard prescribed by the
ISO, the International Standardization Organization
and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the
IEC.

MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3
encoding is capable of compressing the audio data
at extremely high ratios shrinking music files by as
much as one-tenth their original size. This is
achieved while still maintaining near CD quality.
The MP3 format realizes such high compression
ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either
inaudible to the human ear or masked by other
sounds.

Method for creating MP3 files

The software used to create MP3 files is widely
sold or free from various sources. For details on
creating MP3 files, refer to the user's manual for
that software.
The MP3 files that can be played back by this
device have the file extension "mp3." Files with no
extension cannot be played back.
