Anyone with a computer, an Internet connection and time can find and play MP3 sound files. It just takes a lot patience. There's a symphony of sound on the Internet, and much of it is stored in MP3 file format. MP3 files -- MP3 stands for MPEG 1 layer 3 -- are compressed, allowing for reasonably quick downloading compared to other types of audio files, while preserving quality sound. Companies marketing MP3 technology use terms such as "CD quality" or "near-CD quality" to describe what the music sounds like. It's more accurate to say that the quality differs depending on how the file was created, and the highest quality MP3 file is near CD-quality.

MP3s are abundant on commercial music Web sites, and there are stockpiles of illegal files stashed on pirate sites or traded via newsgroups. MP3s can be played over the Internet or downloaded to a computer and then played. The streaming audio technique lets Internet listeners hear music as it's sent from the site, eliminating the wait while files download. Downloading MP3 files is the most time-consuming part of the process. Theoretically, it should take about 21/2 minutes to save a 1-megabyte file using a 56 kbps modem. So a five-minute song should take about 12 minutes. But modems often don't connect at the maximum speed because of line quality or modem configuration, and that can drag out the process. |
