10 Years of the MP3

Data Doctors Radio Program | Ken Colburn, Brandon Disney & Ken Moskowitz The MP3 phenomenon has taken hold over the last few years thanks, in part, to the explosion of mobile music devices, as well as the overall versatility of the format. MP3’s have revolutionized media delivery, making high quality audio available anywhere, anytime, without asking for anything in return.

So what is an MP3? What makes it so special? This week we’re going to reflect back on the early days of the MP3. It’s hard to believe it’s already 10 years old. Before you know it, it’ll be talking back and stealing your car like most adolescents.

Tune in this week as Brandon and Chad discuss the wonderful world of MP3’s and how you can make the most of the technology, and perhaps a heated debate over which one of us has the largest MP3 collection.

Join us every Weekend as we discuss your computer questions. You can post questions on Facebook or e-mail your questions during (or before) the broadcast using the ask a question page.
