Setting Up Your Player
Thanks for buying a Compaq iPAQ Personal CD Player PCD-1, and welcome to the world of digital audio.
What is Digital Audio?
Digital audio is a way of compressing recorded sound so that it takes up much less storage space. A 
song is reduced to about 1/10 its size, allowing you to store much more music on one CD. There are 
many types of digital audio formats, but MP3 and WMA are two of the most popular.
Why Digital Audio?
Digital CD players provide many benefits:
Up to 20 hours of music on one CD
High quality sound
Organization and personalization of your music
The ability to take your favorite music with you anywhere!
