On the other hand, I have to agree with those who say that, since implementations of the MP3 standard are so ubiquitous, support for them is not likely to disappear any time soon. But, in answer to only the question of why such support *might eventually* go the way of the Edsel, I cite MPEG4/AAC. But, then, again, there are always the counter-examples of VHS and other inferior technologies that gained early market-share predominance, and significantly suppressed the market-acceptance of other, superior technologies. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Wood" <k8...@comcast.net>

Good point, Dana! I think that when you get something that gives you a smaller file size yet better sound quality, then that's great, and we've then made progress in sound reproduction! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dana S. Leslie" <dsles...@alumni.princeton.edu>

Because they are too poor in sound quality, and too large in file size; and because the MPEG3 standard has already been superseded by the MPEG4/AAC standard, which gives better sound quality, with better rates of compression. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Wood" <k8...@comcast.net>

Since MP3's are popular, why would their use be discontinued?

Hi All, I have over three terrabytes of mp3 files and am thinking of the future when these types of files will not be used any more. What program should I get to convert mp3 to the newer formats. I currently use soundforge 9.e , or adobe audition 3.0 to do batch file conversion from cda to mp3 or wav format.
Any informationwill be greatly apppreciated.
