About MP3 audio tracks
MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is a standard
technology and format for compressing a sound
sequence. The track is compressed to about
1/10 of its original size. Sounds outside the
range of human hearing are compressed while
the sounds we can hear are not compressed.
Notes on discs
You can play MP3 audio tracks recorded on
CD-ROMs, CD-Rs (recordable CDs) and
CD-RWs (rewritable CDs).
