What is MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression method and
classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.
This audio compression method has penetrated
into PC users and become a standard format. This
MP3 features the original audio data compression
to about 12 percent of its initial size with a high
quality sound. This means that about 10 music
CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc or CD-RW
disc to allow a long listening time without having
to change CDs.

Audio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft
