Digital Audio, Mp3 Player By: Bill Davies
By now you've probably heard of the term "mp3 player". By definition, an mp3 player is a device that plays audio files that are encoded using MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, a term which has been shortened to "mp3". An mp3 is a digital audio and compression format that was designed to minimize the data required to represent an audio while retaining the purity and quality of the original (uncompressed) audio. A team of German engineers created the mp3 format and it was made the ISO standard 1991.(read entire article)(posted on: 2008-11-28)

Individual Savings Accounts (isa) By: Daniel Jones
ISAs or Individual Savings Accounts are one type of tax free accounts available in the UK. They are only available in one name (so you cannot have a joint account), hence the 'individual' part of the name. They are available as maxi or mini accounts. The accounts have a limit on how much money the investor can pay in each tax year and for mini accounts this is £3600 a year and for a maxi it is £7200 a year. This threshold tends to change and is likely to increase when a new tax year starts. The money invested in a mini ISA is invested in cash and the account terms will vary between banks and so can be instant access, fixed rate or notice accounts. The interest will vary depending on the type of account that is chosen. Another way of investing ISA money is in stocks and shares and there are the options of a mini or maxi ISA for this. You can hold a mini cash and a mini stocks and shares ISA at the same time but only one maxi ISA can be held. The stocks and shares ISA can work in several ways, depending on your needs and the company that you invest in. If you pick and choose your own shares you can usually have the option of wrapping these in an ISA which means that you will not pay tax on the interest that you receive. Many financial institutions also give the option of having a stocks and shares ISA where a mix of shares is purchased. You can either choose a spread of shares or a particular fund.
The main advantage of ISAs is that they are tax free so you will not be taxed on any interest that you receive on the account. It is important to remember that if your investment is held in shares then you will still need to pay tax when the shares are sold. It is still a great way to gain some extra interest on your money. You just have to be careful that you do not hold t(read entire article)(posted on: 2008-11-26)
