The structure of ATRAC CDs/MP3 CDs ATRAC CDs/MP3 CDs consist of �files� and �groups.� A �file� is equivalent to a �track� of an audio CD. A �group� is a bundle of files and is equivalent to an �album.� For MP3 CDs, this CD player recognizes an MP3 folder as a �group� so that ATRAC CDs and MP3 CDs can be operated in the same way. Playing order of ATRAC CDs and MP3 CDs For ATRAC CDs, files are played in the order selected in SonicStage. For MP3 CDs, the playing order may differ depending on the method used to record MP3 files on the disc. In the following example, files are played in order of 1 to 7.
