To protect the internal components, playback is automatically stopped when a

periods 
The CD may be damaged and may not play properly.

■ MP3 and WMA files 
MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER3) is a standard audio compression format. 
Files can be compressed to approximately 1/10 of their original size by using 
MP3 compression. 
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format.
This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3 for- 
mat. 
There is a limit to the MP3 and WMA file standards and to the media/formats 
recorded by them that can be used.
