You Get Spots In Either WAV or MP3 Formats
We have chosen MP3 as our preferred file format. However, since some of the most popular automation systems work with WAV files we also give you that choice.   You can download what works best for you and import it directly to your on-air automation system. No need for file conversions or for going to analog first. 

Why MP3?
As you are well aware, MP3 has become the quality audio standard. 
It is so robust and true to the original audio that the music industry has tried to stop its use because it allows near perfect C.D. quality audio downloads from the Web.  We employ the finest audio sound cards and encoders available today and provide you with the best sounding audio possible...better than any other digital delivery system...on or off the Web.

What Do You Need To Hear It?
If you have a sound card and virtually any media player, such as RealAudio, Microsofts' Media Player, WinAmp or Macintosh Quick Time you're in business.  We prefer WinAmp for Windows computers and QuickTime for Macintosh users.  You can get both directly from our programs page.

How Big Are The Files?
Our MP3 files are about 1 meg.  On a high speed access line like DSL or T1 these files download in less than 15 seconds.   Even on a twisted pair, 56k modem they will download in a little over 2 minutes...less time than it would take you to dub from an audio reel.  WAV files are significantly larger (around 12 meg) and will require about 90 seconds to download on a DSL.
