The 1MB restriction is on compressed data.

Uncompressed data can be memory-mapped straight from the APK file,
which minimizes overhead.  Compressed data must be uncompressed into
memory; a very large file could consume most of the available RAM.

aapt doesn't try to compress certain file types, notably .mp3.

(In some cases the data must also be aligned on a 32-bit boundary; the
zipalign tool takes care of this.)
