Portable MP3 Player MP-C440 Appendix A What is MP3? MP3 is an acronym for MPEG Layer 3, a type of audio data compression that can reduce digital sound files by a variable 12:1 ratio with virtually no loss in quantity. It allows you to store more music into less memory. Less memory means being able to have a more compact unit, thus the MP3 player. MP3 files can be very small and yet retain a high sound quality. MP3 files usually have the extension .mp3, and can be downloaded from the Internet, or can be legally made for personal use from the audio CDs that you purchased. Please check if the MP3 file(s) is legal before you start to use. It is illegal to encode MP3 files for trade or sale unless you have the expressed and explicit permission of the copyright holder(s). MP3 Websites Through websites, you can download MP3 files either with or without charge and get information about the latest techniques and software related with MP3. Examples of websites with MP3 content are : (for Reference use ONLY) MP3.COM (http://www.mp3.com) Layer3.org (http://www.layer3.org) EMusic (http://www.emusic.com) Songs.com (http://www.songs.com) Search with 'mp3' topic in search engine for more MP3 related websites and news. 15 Appendix
