Bit rate This stands for linear pulse code modulation,
This expresses data volume per second, or bps which is the signal recording system used for
units (bits per second). The higher the rate, music CDs and DVDs.
the more information is available to reproduce
the sound. Using the same encoding method m3u
(such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better Playlists created using the WINAMP soft-
the sound. ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).

Packet write
This is a general term for a method of writing
on CD-R, etc. at the time required for a file,
just as is done with files on floppy or hard
discs.
VBR
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally
speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more
widely used. But to flexibly adjust the bit rate
according to the needs of audio compression,
it is possible to achieve compression priorities
sound quality.
WAV
WAV is short for waveform. It is a standard
audio file format for Windows®.
WMA
WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and
refers to an audio compression technology
that is developed by Microsoft Corporation.
WMA data can be encoded by using Windows
Media Player version 7 or later.
