Well MP3 files should be smaller than wav files. You can put ten times as much on an MP3 file. In other words, you can put up to ten hours of music on an MP3 CD, whereas you can only put a little over one hour's worth of music on a music CD, which is wav. So that means with the same CD, an MP3 file is one-tenth the size of a regular Wav file music CD. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Morey Worthington" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Pc-audio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 16, 2004 1:05 PM Subject: mp3 vs wav
