If we go to the past, we can remember the madness that the first mp3 devices generated, because with these there was no longer the need to have large collections of CDs that could be scratched or milled to Listen to our favorite music . With these devices we could store it all in our computer and then easily transfer them to these tiny equipment so that we could entertain ourselves for hours and put rhythm into our routine.
Because its use has become very common, the mp3 format can be easily downloaded and played on many programs and computers. In addition, it has a variety of audio qualities, which makes it possible to save many songs with little space compared to heavier ones. It was developed by Karlheinz Brandenburg together with Thomson Multimedia . It was certainly something that came to stay. Currently, downloading mp3 formats is even more diverse, being able to get files with high definition, even for free.
