Hi all,

For those who doesn't now mp3 (mpeg layer 3) is compresion system for audio,
with CD sound quality and a 12:1 compresion. So 74 minutes of CD music
quality only takes 60 Mbs and a song is usualy 4mbs.
To read those files u can get the player WinAmp1.6 (unlimited shareware),
the best player available right now. the url of the file is
www.nullsoft.com/amp and on this page
http://www.spunkyworld.com/cobra/mp3.shtml you can find a list of ftp sites
with today's pop hits and more. One veru interesting site is the Portishead
Archive with lots of remixes and live recordings from portishead. But please
remind that if u like the mp3's please buy the record.
