| Description | The PRC is an eBook file format created by Mobipocket, a French company incorporated in 2000. Mobipocket started the company with the flagship eBook MOBI file format. The PRC file format is quite similar to the MOBI format used on mobile phones, Palmtop devices, and PC operating systems. However, PRC files are used exclusively for palmtop devices that support PRC or PDB extensions. The Mobipocket Reader program can be used to view PRC files on a PC. Amazon Kindle reading devices can also view eBooks with the .prc extension; so far, the file is not protected; this compatibility is possible because Amazon.com acquired Mobipocket.com in 2005. |
| Technical details | PRC eBook format is structured on the XHTML framework of webpages; it equally supports inline frames of images and Javascript – to specify text styling. The PRC format supports Digital Rights Management, which protects commercial pictures and tables from pirated reproduction. Many users who prefer reading eBooks in the .prc form do so because such files support activities like adding notes, bookmarking, corrections, and annotations. Many eBook formats exclude images because of the bandwidth requirement to read such files; however, PRC format optimizes pictures and other elements such that eBook with pictures and other supposedly massive files can be read on low bandwidth devices. |

| Description | MP3 (formally MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3 or MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3) is a digital format for storage of audio files as well as for audio streaming. The format was designed by MPEG programmers. It is one of the most required codecs for digital coding. The format is widely used in various file-sharing sites for evaluation downloading. Due to lossy compression in this audio format, it is possible to compress CD tracks up to 1/10 of their original size while maintaining high playback quality. Moreover, it can be encoded at higher or lower bit rates to adjust the resulting quality. Overtones, which cannot be perceived by a human ear, are removed. Complex algorithms allow for smaller size of tracks. As a result, one compact disk can contain several hundred songs. MP3 is compatible with all most popular operating systems and supported by the most of modern DVD-players and music systems. |
| Technical details | Prior to MP3 introduction, MPEG-1 had been widely used. That format contained not only audio data, but images as well. MP3 breaks an audio file into parts of the same length. When the processing is over, each part is packed into its own frame. It involves the technology of spectral limit that requires a continuous input signal to provide the use of two adjacent frames. When spectral deleting is over, the file is to be compressed with mathematic methods. If necessary, compression rate can be changed, even inside the same frame. Files of 128 kbit/s have 11-fold compression. Further reduction of the file size will lead to significant deterioration in sound quality. |
