MP3/WMA
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 10 percent of its initial size
with a high sound quality. 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.
What is WMA?
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media
Audio, an audio file format developed by
Microsoft Corporation.
