MP3 is the abbreviation of MPEG-1 Audio
Layer 3 and MPG is the abbreviation of
Motion Pictures Experts Group, a digital
video data compression standard used on
media such as video CDs.
The MP3 compression reduces the
number of bytes in a song by eliminat-
ing the long sound waves in the range of
frequencies which are imperceptible to
the human ear, so producing high quality
a u d i o fi l e s w i t h a l o w v o l u m e o f d a t a .
This compression divides the size of
the content of a conventional audio CD
by approximately 10, which means that
the content of 10 audio CDs can be re-
corded onto a single CD-R or CD-RW.
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows
Media Audio, another audio data com-
pression standard offered by Microsoft.
It can be used to create and save audio
