Technical specifications

MP3-CD playback
The MP3-CD format combines the advantages of MP3
digital audio compression with the affordable and
widely accepted CD storage format. The end result is
that a tiny 8cm MP3-CD can hold over 3 hours of
MP3 music, while a normal 12cm disc can hold over
10 hours. Using readily available software, you can rip
music from your audio CDs or download MP3 music
legally from the internet and burn it to a recordable or
rewritable 12cm or 8cm CD. The resulting MP3-CD
can be played back as though it were a normal audio
CD.
WMA playback 
Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a highly compressed
digital audio format from Microsoft that delivers great
sound with music files that take up half the disk space
and download in half the time. A single CD can store
up to 20 hours of good quality WMA music recorded
at a bit rate of 64 Kbps. Four minutes of high quality
WMA music recorded at 192 Kbps takes up only
5.7MB of storage space. The WMA audio format lets
you conserve space on your digital audio player while
still enjoying quality music.
Magic ESP
Magic Electronic Skip Protection ensures skip-free
music even when your MP3-CD player is knocked or
jolted. Devices with the feature have an intelligent
electronic buffer that can store different music formats
such as MP3,WMA and CDDA. During playback,
music is constantly fed into the buffer. When the
device is jolted, music is played from the buffer while
the laser promptly refocuses to the point where the
shock occurred, and recommences playing to refill the
buffer. Magic Electronic Skip Protection can offer long
skip protection depending on the bit rate of the digital
audio file.
ID3 Tag  support 
Players with ID3 Tag support have an LCD screen that
displays a text readout of the artist name and the title
of the track currently being played so you can easily
identify songs on your player. They show both
numerical and text information in an easy-to-read
format allowing you to conveniently view the artist
name and track title. ID3 Tag support lets you quickly
and easily identify and navigate through the large
number of files on your MP3-CD or WMA-CD.
Charging cradle 
Enjoy the ease and convenience of recharging your CD
player simply by docking it in this compact and
portable charging cradle. It fits on any desktop and
can be stationed anywhere. When you connect the
AC/DC adaptor to the charging cradle, the LED
indicator will turn red to show that your CD player is
charging. Once the rechargeable batteries in the
player are fully charged, the LED indicator will turn
green. Now your player is fully powered-up so you can
continue enjoying your music.
