Bit Rate Near CD Quality CD Quality MUSICMATCH Jukebox (Standard Version) MUSICMATCH Jukebox Plus Update Constant Bit Rate (CBR) data so as to alter the appearance of the data making it incomprehensible to those who are not authorized to see the information. Whether or not files will be encrypted depends on what format files are in. If recording MP3 files, they w ill not be encrypted. Bit rate refers to the speed at which bits (of information) are transmitted, usually expressed in bits per second. MP3 files compressed at 96kbps are more commonly referred to as near CD Quality recordings. The next step up in recording quality is 128kbps, more commonly referred to as CD Quality recording. Generally speaking, the higher the bit rate, the better the sound quality of the resulting file. A track recorded at near CD quality will take up less hard drive space than the same track recorded at CD quality. Unfortunately, sound quality must be sacrificed to save disk space, so the choice usually is to record tracks at CD quality. MP3 files compressed at 128 kbps are considered CD quality recordings. MUSICMATCH offers the ability to record MP3s up to 320 kbps. Throughout the MUSICMATCH website and related materials, you will see references to the standard version of MUSICMATCH Jukebox. This is the standard (free) version of the program that allows you to record an unlimited number of CD Quality recordings, unlimited use of the library and more. Upgrade the standard version to the enhanced MUSICMATCH Jukebox Plus for $19.99, which includes many power features including the ability to encode up to 12 times faster than the standard version of the jukebox. Throughout the MUSICMATCH web site and related materials, you will see references to 'updating the software'. Update refers to updating your version of MUSICMATCH Jukebox to a new, or more recent software release. There is no cost to update the program and you can check for software updates anytime by choosing Update Software from the Register menu within the player. Constant Bit Rate encoding is a method that ensures a consistent bit rate throughout an encoded file, potentially at the expense of audio quality and/or Encoder efficiency. Use CBR encoding when you need to limit the size of the MP3 file or produce consistent file sizes. Choose a CBR setting from 16kbps to 320kbps from the Record Settings screen to - 24 -

CD Quality recording. Generally speaking, the higher the bit
rate, the better the sound quality of the resulting file. A track
recorded at near CD quality will take up less hard drive space
than the same track recorded at CD quality. Unfortunately,
sound quality must be sacrificed to save disk space, so the

CD Quality
MP3 files compressed at 128 kbps are considered CD quality
recordings. MUSICMATCH offers the ability to record MP3s up
to 320 kbps.

Constant Bit Rate
(CBR)
Constant Bit Rate encoding is a method that ensures a
consistent bit rate throughout an encoded file, potentially at
the expense of audio quality and/or Encoder efficiency.
Use CBR encoding when you need to limit the size of the MP3
file or produce consistent file sizes. Choose a CBR setting
from 16kbps to 320kbps from the Record Settings screen to
