MP3 Players

Also known as a digital audio player (DAP) it is a device that stores, organises and plays digital music files. You will need a computer to use an MP3 player, and ideally the internet. You copy or rip CD's you already own on to your computer and transfer them to the player, or you can download music on to the player from online music websites. MP3 is simply the name of a type of computer file. It shrinks the amount of data required in a recording to a fraction of its original size with a slight, and undetectable, reduction in sound quality. Many Digital Audio Players support other files as well as MP3, such as WAV and WMA. MP3 players have capacities ranging from 4GB up to 16GB (some of which have upgradable memory).
