General information
MP3 music files
The music compression technology MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3) reduces
the digital data of an audio CD significantly while maintaining CD-like sound
quality.With MP3 you can record up to 3 hours of CD-like music on one
8 cm CD-ROM.
How to get music files
Either download legal music files from the internet to your computer hard disc
or create them from your own audio CDs. For this, insert an audio CD into
your computer´s CD-ROM drive and convert the music using an appropriate
encoder software.To achieve a good sound quality, a bit rate of 128 kbps or
higher is recommended for MP3 music files.
How to organize music files
In order to easily handle the large number of music files on a CD-ROM,
you can organize them in folders ("albums").
The tracks of an album will be played in alphabetical order. If you want
to arrange them in a certain order, let the file names start with numbers.
For example:
001-ONEWORLD.MP3
002-FIRESTARTER.MP3
003-DEEP.MP3
Albums will be arranged in alphabetical order, but subfolders (albums within
another album) will be played immediately after the album in which they are
located. Albums without MP3 files will be skipped.
If there are MP3 files which you did not put into an album, you will find them
in the album

When playing a disc with CD Audio tracks and MP3 files, the CD Audio tracks
