Difference between ATRAC3plus/ATRAC3 and
MP3

Groups and folders

The ATRAC3plus/ATRAC3 format has a very simple structure. It consists of “files” and
“groups.” A “file” is equivalent to a “track” of an audio CD. A “group” is a bundle of files and is
equivalent to an “album.” A “group” has no directory-type structure (a new group cannot be
made within an existing group). This CD player is designed to recognize an MP3 file folder as a
“group” so that it can play CD-Rs/RWs recorded in both the ATRAC3plus/ATRAC3 format and
those recorded in the MP3 format with the same operation.

Displaying the track name, etc.

When playing a CD having ATRAC3plus/ATRAC3 files or MP3 files on this CD player, track
names, artist names and album names are displayed. This CD player conforms to Version 1.1/2.2/
2.3 of the ID3 tag format.

Notes

• This CD player cannot record music content on recordable media, such as CD-Rs/RWs.
• CD-Rs/RWs recorded in the ATRAC3plus/ATRAC3 format cannot be played on your computer.
• Playback capability may vary depending on the quality of the disc and the condition of the recording device.
