4.0 out of 5 stars It's actually a Winamp Manual..., 31 Jan 2000
By A Customer
This book is essentially well-written and informative, but the title is somewhat misleading - this is not an introduction to MP3s in general but rather a manual for Winamp, the popular freeware Windows player.

There's nothing wrong with that - Winamp is really cool and should take pride of place on your desktop. Because Winamp is freeware it doesn't come with a manual, and while there's nothing in here you can't glean from the winamp.com website, it's handy to have a real-world reference book - more practical, let's face it, than its virtual counterpart.

Apart from the how-to stuff, there's a short history of the MP3 format, and the basics of MP3 technology are glossed over. There are a few references to competing players, but only really to affirm Winamp's superiority over the rest of the pack.

Ultimately, the best reason to purchase this book is if you use Winamp already - Winamp is free, so think of it as your contribution to the continued development of this rather fine product - a sort of round-about shareware fee!

3.0 out of 5 stars Some Good Stuff But a Little Too Much Drivel, 16 Jul 1999
By A Customer
The book has a lot of good stuff on Winamp, SHOUTcast and the MP3 file format. Some nice details on configuring Winamp plug-ins and the ID3 Tag format. My only complaints were that the writing is a bit awkward and often tends to "hype" MP3 and Winamp. Also, about 10 percent of the book consists of mostly useless interviews with people from the MP3 community. All in all, it's a decent book if you are a dedicated Winamp user, like me, or a SHOUTcast DJ. But I definitely wouldn't recommend it to someone completely new to MP3.
