TERMS
Packet write—
This is a general term that describes the
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-
related information in an MP3 file. This
embedded information can include the
track title, the artist's name, the album title,
the music genre, the year of production,
comments and other data. The contents
can be freely edited using software with
ID3 tag editing functions. Although the tags
are restricted to the number of characters,
the information 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.
ISO 9660 format—
This is the international standard for the
formatting of CD-ROM folders and files.
For the ISO 9660 format, there are two
levels of regulations.
Level 1:

file names, with a 3 character file extension.
File names must be composed of one-
byte capital letters and numbers. The "_"
symbol may also be included.)
Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 characters
(including the separation mark "." and
file extension). Each folder must contain
fewer than 8 hierarchies.
m3u—

conventional discs.

audio compression

size smaller than that of MP3 files. The
decoding formats for WMA files are Ver. 7,
