I'd like to conduct another quick survey. Please reply to me only (i.e., not to
the list) so that we don't clog up the list too much.

mr88cet@texas.net

I'll tally up the results and send them to the list after a week or so.

Questions:

1. Do you have the ability to play MP3 files from a web page?
o Yes
o No
o Don't know
2. Do you have the ability to play Real Audio files from a web page?
o Yes
o No
o Don't know
3. What pretty-good-quality, compressed sound-file format do you believe that
the most people have the ability to listen to from their web browsers?
o Real Audio
o MP3
o Other (please specify)
o Don't know

Thanks for the opinions!

I think I asked something somewhat similar over a year ago, but the cyberscape
has changed a lot since then. I'm hoping to finally get some progress made on
my 88CET web pages, so I'd like to know what sound formats are likely to be
usable for a fairly wide audience.
