"There is no doubt that advances in digital technology will
bring enormous benefits to the audio book listener - greater flexibility,
better quality and the potential for more content for less money.
MP3-CD is one format that delivers these benefits. We see this as
a terrific example of a broader 成人论坛 Audiobooks strategy to explore
the ways in which innovation in technology can make the listening
experience more pleasurable and better value for money."
