• MP3 stands for Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer III, which format revolutionized the distribution of music in the late '90s. MP3 compresses files while retaining near-CD quality sound. Smaller files means downloads are faster and more files can be held. A CD song of four minutes' length will occupy 40MB on CD, but only 4MB in MP3 format.
• Good compression requires algorithms using perceptual noise shaping, taking advantage of the limited range of the human ear and that fact that the ear appreciates certain sounds better. Also, if two sounds play simultaneously, the louder is heard more. Hence, certain parts of an MP3 rendition of a song can be eliminated without noticeably damaging the quality of the track.
MP3 is changing your life. Some audio enthusiasts lament that MP3 files don't compare to a CD. It has been alleged that sound engineers mix music differently to accommodate MP3, because the format “flattens” dynamics – the range of pitch and volume.
