Plays Back MP3/ATRAC3®/ATRAC3plus™ Audio Formats For customers who already have an extensive music library, the included software and hardware makes it easy to store and playback their collection of MP3s. For the customer who is just getting into the world of digital music, Sony's ATRAC® format provides higher sound quality and smaller file sizes than many competing formats. This enables the user to store more music at higher quality for longer listening.
