Our royalty free music can be shipped or downloaded. If you have a fast internet connection, we recommend that you download the music. Shipped Formats: Shipped music can be sent in either standard CD format, or WAV format. The CD format is in the form of standard audio CD with CDDA files. The WAV files arrive uncompressed on a CD-R. They are in the same format as our downloadable WAV files described in the next section. Downloadable Formats: Both albums and single tracks are available for download. You have the choice of either compressed MP3 or uncompressed WAV. For the MP3's, we use a high quality encoding process that results in a crystal clear MP3. All MP3's are encoded at 160 kbps. The WAV files are uncompressed resulting in the highest quality audio. Both the MP3 and WAV files are stereo and have a sample rate of 44.1 kHz.
