The MP360 MP3 Player is a palm-sized audio device that

uses no moving parts for playback, and delivers high-quality

sound for your enjoyment. The MP360 uses the MPEG 3

compression method for quality internet audio.

Your MP3 Player is a portable digital audio player that plays

MP3 files without requiring the use of tapes or CDs. MP3

Players use one or two flash memory cards, which are

expandable up to 64MB. MP3 is a well known, high-quality

digital audio format. MP3 files can be compressed up to 12

times the original wave file size. Using a computer, thousands

of MP3 files are available on the internet. You can down files

to your computer without leaving your home, or having to wait

in long lines at record stores. Just download the files legally

from anywhere in the world through your internet connection.

You will have to pay a fee for downloading MP3 files to the

MP3 provider. The files can then be transferred to your player

and listened to on your home stereo, in your car, on the

beach, or any where you wish to go! Also, you can make your

own CD quality MP3 files from CD or WAV , by using the MP3

encoder software.

MP3 Players take advantage of MP3’s small data size and CD

quality sound.

documents, etc. is that when transferring large data from

PC to PC, you can carry an equivalent of more than 40

floppy disks! A floppy disk can store only 1.44MB of data,

but you can store up to 64 Mega Bytes of data using your
