MP3 Audio File Format – A new format for storing sounds

by: David Chandler

MP3 is the latest and the most popular audio format that is used
now. This acronym stands for MPEG Layer 3. It is a compressed
audio format with a compression ratio of up to 12: 1. The sound
quality of the audio in this format is very high. A normal audio file,
which is 1200 KB in size, can be stored in just 100 KB if it is using
the MP3 format. The size of the audio files is very small when
compared to other formats of audio files. This makes it easily
portable.

Where to get MP3 audio files?

MP3 audio files are widely available in CDs now. Almost any album
that is released in the world is also sold in the MP3 audio format.

manufacturers. You can download directly to the player by using

How to play a MP3 audio file?

To play a MP3 audio you need separate players whether it is

players are used in your PC to play MP3 audio. Physical players
