·         How do we store audio media? What are the different ways of storing audio media?

-       Storing Audio Media :

Until the nineteenth century, information was recorded in a limited number of ways – mostly onto paper, parchment or canvas. Since the mid-nineteenth century, many different types of new media have been invented, such as:

§  Photographs (glass plates, daguerreotypes, negatives, black and white prints, color prints, slides, microfilms and microfiches, digital formats such as jpeg)  Sound (vinyl records, reel-to-reel tapes, cassette tapes, minidiscs, compact discs, digital formats such as mp3)

§  Moving images (cine film, videotape in multiple formats including Betamax and VHS, video disc, DVD, Blu-Ray, digital formats such as mp4)

§  Electronic files (emails, word-processed documents in various formats, databases and spreadsheets, web pages, and items stored on floppy discs, CDs, memory sticks, or online on sites like Flickr)

-       Store audio media :

-       Music files can take a lifetime to accumulate and if you should ever lose them, depending on how robust your collection is, it may be impossible to get every file back. When it comes to storing your music—or any other priceless files—the most important issue is not to limit yourself to a single storage method on a single device. For example,

-       SD Cards

Secure Digital or SD cards are small high-capacity memory cards that are compatible with computers, cameras, and other electronic devices

DVDs

-       DVDs can be an inexpensive storage solution since each DVD can store about 1,000 MP3 files. If you have an MP3 CD player, you may prefer to burn CDs instead, but this store only a fraction of the files. Be aware, however, that few music players can play MP3 DVDs. CD players can usually play MP3 CDs provided they are on CD-R discs and not CD-RWs.

-       Cloud Storage

Depending on how many music files you own, cloud storage services can offer you secure off-site storage. The benefit of cloud services is that they can be accessed from any computer, smartphone or tablet with Internet access
