Listening to recorded MP3
or WMA CD-R/CD-RW
• There are many music distribution sites on the internet from
which music files in MP3 format can be downloaded. Music
downloaded as instructed on the site and written onto a CD-
R/CD-RW disc can be played on the S-301.
• If music recorded on commercially available music CDs is
converted on a computer into MP3 files using an MP3 encoder
(conversion software), the data on a 12 cm CD is reduced into
about 1/10 the amount of the original data. Thus, when written in
MP3 format, the data of about 10 music CDs can fit onto a single
CD-R/CD-RW disc. A single CD-R/CD-RW disc can contain over
100 tracks.
• Values when 5-minute tracks are converted with a standard bit
rate of 128 kbps into MP3 files and using a CD-R/CD-RW disc
with a capacity of 650 MB.
• This unit can play CD-R/CD-RW music files that have been
recorded in the WMA (Windows Media Audio)* audio
compression format.
