MP3 DISC QUALITY FACTORS
The MACHtMP3 music system is designed for use with CD-DA (regular
audio discs), CD-R and CD-RW discs. Discs must comply with ISO 9660
and Joliet standards.
Several factors can effect disc playback quality:
²Disc capacity Ð Each disc contains about 650 MB of storage capacity.
We do not recommend using high capacity discs containing 700MB of
storage.
²Disc type Ð Some CD-RW discs may operate inconsistently and may
cause an error message to appear. We recommend burning MP3 files
onto CD-R discs.
