Which sound samples are better, RealAudio, Windows Media, or MP3?
Our RealAudio clips are designed to stream (start playing immediately) even over slower modems, while MP3 and Windows Media clips are designed to sound better. If you have a 14.4, 28.8, or even 56k modem and you want to listen very quickly to a sample of a song, click on RealAudio song samples. If you have a fast Internet connection (e.g., ISDN, T1 line, ADSL or cable modem), or if you just want to hear higher quality samples, choose MP3 or Windows Media clips. While MP3 and Windows Media clips are higher quality audio than RealAudio samples, they are NOT full CD quality. Any CD that you pruchase from this site will in fact be full CD quality, 44.1 KHz stereo audio.
