process of writing data on−demand to
CD− R, etc., in the same way that data is
written to floppy or hard discs.
ID3 Tag—
This is a method of embedding track −re-
lated information in an MP3 file. This em-
bedded information can include the track
title, the artist’s name, the album title, the
music genre, the year of production, com-
ments and other data. The contents can
be freely edited using software with ID3 tag
editing functions. Although the tags are re-
stricted to the number of characters, the in-
formation can be viewed when the track is
played back.
WMA Tag—
WMA files can contain a WMA tag that is
used in the same way as an ID3 tag. WMA
tags carry information such as track title,
artist name.

els of regulations.

file names, with a 3 character file exten-
sion. File names must be composed of

(including the separation mark “.” and file

ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
MP3—

tion). MP3 compresses audio data to
about 1/10 the size of that on conventional
discs.

WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an audio
compression format developed by
Microsoft
r. It compresses files into a size
smaller than that of MP3 files. The
decoding formats for WMA files are Ver. 7,
