About MP3 Audio
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III) is the world's most popular audio format. By removing frequencies that most humans can't hear, MP3 achieves roughly 10:1 compression while preserving excellent perceived audio quality. MP3 revolutionized digital music and remains the universal standard for audio file sharing.
