2.4.12 Is MP3 compatible with DVD?

Mostly no. MP3 is the MPEG-1 Layer 3 audio compression format. (MP3 is not
MPEG-3, which doesn't exist.) The DVD-Video spec allows only Layer 2 for
MPEG audio. MP3 can be played on computers with a DVD-ROM drive. A few DVD
players (KiSS, Monyka, Lasonic, Raite, Sampo, Shinco) can play MP3 CDs.
(See 6.2 for company Web sites.)
