Web enabled digital music entertainment system have sent ripples across music lovers and have become very popular. To listen to a traditional maestro ,one needs not attend a concert or go to a music store to buy cassettes or CDs . music artisans and production companies can now host their programs on the web. Music in the form of compressed digital files can be distributed and delivered across the internet down to the PCs and MP3 players.
MP3 has become synonymous with the internet and is threatening to wholly redefine the way in which people have so far been getting and enjoying music. It’s popularity is soaring, but not too many people still know what it stands for and what it is capable of. MP3 is more about producing high quality audio by compressing the data. MP3 has made it much easier and faster to deliver music through the internet. Only a few years ago, downloading a song from the net might have taken 20 minutes, but with MP3 , it takes much less time.
WHAT IS MP3:
MP3 stands for Motion Picture Expert Group1 Layer3
(MPEG-1 Layer 3). MPEG is a audio-video standards setting body under the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the International Electromechanical Commission (IEC).
MPEG layer 3 is a type of where processed by significant compression from the original audio source with very little loss in sound quality. The compression up to 12:1 produces very little degradation. Tighter compression can be achieved but it results in sound degradation . to obtain certain compression , we must adjust the bit rates. The stand art bit rates (near CD quality) is 128 or 112 Kbps. The advantage if MP3 is that it can be broken up to pieces and each piece is still playable. The feature that makes this possible means that MP3 files can be made to stream across the net real-time. The disadvantage of MP3 compression is that lots of processor power is required to encode and play files , also a sound card is required. The hardware player/encoder/decoder is still in development and have very expensive price.
