Subject: [MT35101] 03b. MP3 PAINFULLY SLOW? From: "Aaron E. Walsh" Reply-To: MT35101@yahoogroups.com Organization: Mantis Development Corp. To: BC Computer Graphics Class MT35101 If you're downloading the MP3 audio files over a dial-up (modem) it'll take a looooooooong time before you hear them all! As our Web page notes mention, the MP3 audio file format does not "stream". In a minute we'll start working with flash, which streams content over the Web bit-by-bit so you can hear it *as* it downloads. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Aaron E.
