MP3 is the abbreviation of “MPEG-1 Audio
Layer 3”. MPEG is an abbreviation of “Mo-
tion Picture Experts Group”, and this is a vid- eo compression standard used in video CDs,
etc.
MP3 is one of the audio compression meth-
ods contained in the MPEG audio standard, and reduces the quality of sounds that are be-
yond the auditory resolution of the human ear and that are hidden by louder sounds, thus
creating high-quality data with a lower data
size.
This can compress CD audio to approximate-
ly 1/10 its original data size without percepti- ble loss, approximately 10 CDs can be writ-
ten to a single CD-R/RW disc.
CAUT,ONz MP3 files different to the standards at right
may not play back correctly, or file/folder names may not be displayed correctly.
