GLOSSARY Audio information ■ MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) One of the audio compression methods used by MPEG. It employs the irreversible compression method, which achieves a high compression rate by thinning out the data of hardly audible part to the human ears. It is said to be capable of compressing the data quantity by about 1/11 (128 kbps) while maintaining a similar audio quality to music CD. ■ PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) A signal that is changed to digital format without compression. A CD is recorded with 16-bit sound at 44.1 kHz. This signal also has a type called Packed PCM (PPCM) that can be compressed without any loss of data. ■ Track A CD can be divided into a number of segments (tracks). Each division is called a track number. ■ WMA (Windows Media Audio) An audio compression method developed by Microsoft Corporation. It employs the irreversible compression method, which achieves a high compression rate by thinning out the data of hardly audible part to the human ears. It is said to be capable of compressing the data quantity by about 1/22 (64 kbps) while maintaining a similar audio quality to music CD.

In principle, the higher the sampling rate, the wider the frequency range that can be played back, and the higher the quantized bit rate, the finer the sound that can be reproduced. iPod™ "iPod" is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.
