. MP3: This is short for Moving
Pictures Experts Group Audio
Layer 3. MP3 is the most
well-known compressed digital
audio file format. This format
allows for near “CD quality”
sound, but at a fraction of the
size of normal audio files. MP3
conversion of an audio track
from CD-ROM can reduce the
file size by approximately a 10:1
ratio with little loss in quality.
MP3 compression removes the
redundant and irrelevant parts of
a sound signal that the human
ear does not hear.
. WMA: Windows Media Audio
(WMA) is a compressed audio
format created by Microsoft as
an alternative to MP3. The WMA
codec offers greater file
compression than the MP3
codec, enabling storage of more
digital audio tracks in the same

amount of space when
compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
. Bit Rate: Bit rate denotes the
number of bits per second used
by a digital music file. The size
and quality of a compressed
digital audio file is determined by
the bit rate used when encoding
the file.
. Sampling Frequency: This is the
rate at which the samples of a
signal are converted from analog
to digital (A/D conversion) per
second.
. Multisession: Multisession is one
of the methods for writing data to
media. Writing data once to the
media is called a single session,
and writing more than once is
called a multisession.
. ID3/WMA Tag: The ID3/WMA tag
is the part of the encoded MP3
or WMA file that contains
information about the digital
music file such as song title,
artist, encoding bit rate, track
time duration, etc. ID3 tag information is displayed on the
artist/song title line on the
display.
