About MP3
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), or CD-RWs
(rewritable CDs).
The disc must be in the ISO9660* level 1, level 2 or
Joliet format.
*ISO9660 Format
The most common international standard for the
logical format of tracks and albums on a CD-ROM.
There are several specification levels. In Level 1, track
names must be in the 8.3 format (no more than eight
characters in the name, no more than three characters
in the extension “.MP3”) and in capital letters. Album
names can be no longer than eight characters. There
can be no more than eight nested album levels. Level 2
specifications allow album names and track names up
