5-2. Questions and Answers
Additional
Information
What is VBR?
VBR is "Variable Bit Rate". Some MP3 encoders support VBR. When
enabled, the compressor will use a bit rate that will fit the actual
passage. If it is a complex part, having much more variation in the
sound, it will use a high bit rate. If there is less variation in sound, it will
use a lower bit rate. Usually, the average bit rate will not be as high as a
same-quality MP3 with CBR (Constant Bit Rate). However, there is
shortcoming that it's hard to keep track of the actual position that may
not be favorable when studying language.

I hear a 'hiccup' sound while the song is playing.
Corrupted MP3 or WMA files may make a static noise and the sound
