Here are three of the most common concerns:- - # MP3, M4A, data, and WAV formats all present problems when burned onto a CD, particularly when it's unclear what equipment the listener will be using to play the disc.- * MP3s will work on most CD players, but don't always show the notes or even title information that Industry listeners will need (unless the ID3 tags are carefully filled out). They also will not play at all on older CD players, which can be problematic, especially for people to listen in the car.- * An M4A file will work well in a computer, but will often only play through iTunes. It will likely not play at all on CD players or car stereos.- * A .wav file will be missing information and is cumbersome for anyone who wants to download the music because of its large filesize.- # Most recipients will work in a corporate environment where there are limitations on the size of e-mail attachments that can be received.- # Most recipients will also have filters that identify e-mails from unknown third party file-sending services and send them straight to the spam bin.{{Journal}}{{Journal}}Current revision as of 22:15, 2 May 2011
