The bitrate of a music file is describing the audio quality that the track has been encoded at (converted to digital format from the original recording). 'Kbps' (kilobits per second) basically means the number of digital samples bits. The music files you purchase from us are encoded at a bitrate of at least 160kbps. For the human ear, 160kbps is hard to distinguish from CD quality sound.

ANSWER: Shortly ? it refers to data transfer speed. The bitrate describes the amount of data used/transferred within a time period. It is directly related to the compression level ? for example, if we use DV video (approximately 1:5 compression) we would need 25 Mbit per second. If we use MPEG2 compression at bitrate = 6 Mbit/sec, the compression level will be 1:27. Therefore, the higher the bitrate we are using, the lower the compression and the better the quality.

Hardware devices (such as Apple's iPod and Dell's DJ) and software players (such as Apple iTunes and MusicMatch) support different file formats. The format supported by all is MP3. There are other file formats that we support, such as WMA or AAC, but we'll send back MP3 unless you specify otherwise. Each compression format offers various bitrates. Bitrate is the average number of bits that one second of audio data will consume. See similar questions...

The highest bitrate possible for your application should always be used. For example, to produce audio that streams over a 28.8 Kbps modem connection you should use a bitrate of 20 or 24 kbits/s. For higher quality music download or video applications, a bitrate of 64 to 128 kbits/s might be more appropriate. See similar questions...

Also known as Bit rate. The speed at which digital audio and video content streams from a source, such as a file, to be rendered properly by a player, or the speed at which binary content in general is streamed on a network See similar questions...

This decision is a personal choice according to your needs and your preferences. If the sound quality of MP3 players worries you, a team of experts consulted by the Protégez-Vous magazine (September 2005) tested 22 MP3 players, and concluded that sound quality can be improved by purchasing ear-phones of better quality that those which are sold with the players.

Colour-light signals that are not in use (just set up but not yet commissioned, or in the process of being decommissioned) are often turned to point away from the tracks, so that it is clear to all locomotive drivers that the signal is not in service. Otherwise, it would be treated as an active signal that is malfunctioning (lamps burnt out), which would require trains to follow special procedures for passing malfunctioning signals.

Well apparently it has to do with something called gene expression, which refers to the pattern in which genes are switched on and off. And gene expression has a major effect on your body's biological processes. Each cell in your body contains a 'power-factory' that produces energy, called the mitochondria. See similar questions...

Ripit Good offers the following bitrates: 128kbps (kilo-bits per second), 192kbps, 256kbps,and 320kbps. . In general, selecting a bit-rate is typically determined (1) by the amount of storage available and (2) how it will be used. The bigger the bitrate, the higher the sound quality and overall size of the compressed file. See similar questions...
