Continued 25 Playing Discs with MP3 Files Discs consisting of MP3 files (or MP3 discs) can be played by the CRX10U in the same way as standard music CDs. MP3 Files MP3 is a compression standard used by computers to handle music data. Music compressed with the MP3 format is stored in MP3 files. One major advantage of MP3 is its high rate of compression. Files in MP3 format are about one tenth of the size of the equivalent WAV format sound files commonly used with Windows. For example, the 650 MB content of a standard music CD compresses to about 65 MB as an MP3 file, while maintaining sound quality equivalent to the music CD, allowing great savings of disc space. Playing MP3 Discs Operations for playing MP3 discs on the CRX10U are the same as for standard music CDs. See pages 21 to 25 for details as needed. However, the items displayed on the remote control are different from those displayed with standard music CDs. When playing MP3 discs, the remote control display changes as follows each time you press the DISPLAY button.
