Storing Songs in a USB
Device
You can record songs on an audio CD in a USB
device by encoding to MP3 format. You can also
copy the MP3 files on a DATA CD/DATA DVD
into the USB device.
For connecting the USB device, see
“Connecting the USB device” (page 71).
The recorded music is limited to private use
only. Use of the music beyond this limit requires
permission of the copyright holders.
Notes on the USB recording/
copying

through a USB hub.
• Make sure there is enough space in the USB
device for recording or copying.
• Do not remove the USB device during
recording/copying.
• When you are recording tracks from a CD, the
tracks are recorded as 128 kbps MP3 files.
• When you are copying MP3 files from a
DATA CD/DATA DVD, the MP3 files are
recorded with the same bit rate as the original
MP3 files.
• CD text information is not recorded in the
created MP3 files.
• If you stop a recording partway, an MP3 file
whose recording was stopped halfway is
deleted.
• Recording stops automatically if:
– The USB device runs out of space during
recording/copying.
– The number of MP3 files on the USB
device reaches the limit for the number that
the system can recognize.
• You can store up to 150 files in a folder.
• You can store up to 199 folders in a single
USB device.
• If a folder or file that you are trying to record
already exists on the USB device with the
same name, a sequential number is added after
the name without overwriting the original
folder or file.
