About MP3
CAUTION
Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3
data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether for free
or for a fee, without permission of the copyright holder is strictly
prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international treaty.
What is MP3?
MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3,” is a compression
standard prescribed by the ISO, the International Standardization
Organization and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.
MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is capable of
compressing audio data at extremely high ratios, reducing the size of
music files to as much as one-tenth their original size. This is achieved
while still maintaining near CD quality. The MP3 format realizes such
high compression ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either
inaudible to the human ear or masked by other sounds.
Method for creating MP3 files
Audio data is compressed using software with MP3 codecs. For details
on creating MP3 files, refer to the user’s manual for that software.
MP3 files that are playable on this device have the file extensions “mp3”.
Files with no extension cannot be played back.
It’s possible that the format may be unplayable even though the
extension is valid.

Producing MP3 discs

writing software. A disc can hold up to 510 files/folders (including Root
Folders), and the maximum number of folders is 255.

described above.
