The global broadcast was on around the world.
Using the International System of Units (SI) definition of a day as 86,400 seconds, there are 31,536,000 seconds in a 365 day year. Additionally, the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) responsible for maintaining global time has not announced any leap seconds for 2009, so the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) scale will be the same as the SI.

Around 5-6 seconds if you're using a MP3 file
No. The only other way is to get it from a friend or using the GTS (Global Trading System)
GPS stands for global positioning system. It is a navigation system that uses a group of satellites to check your position and show you through whatever device it is you are using.
Minutes and hours are currently not measured using a metric system. Time is measured using the decimal system, whereby an hour is 60 minutes, and a minute is 60 seconds. In most proposed metric time systems the smallest usable measure of time is still called a 'second' with smaller portions called milliseconds and kiloseconds. 10 seconds would be called a decasecond, and 100 seconds called a hectosecond.
The method is too complex to describe here in detail, but the system of hardware and software that implements the method is the Global Positioning System (GPS).
