Korean computer engineers are introducing a new digital music format that has separate controls on the sound volume for each musical instrument, such as guitar, drum, base and voice -- an ideal tool for music lovers of different tastes as well as karaoke fans.



The new format, which has a file extension format of MT9 and a commercial title of Music 2.0, is poised to replace the popular MP3 file format as the de facto standard of the digital music source, its inventors say.

Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics are both interested in equipping their mobile phones with an MT9 player and their first commercial products are likely to debut early next year.

I'd rather listen to my music the way the artist intended it to be, and not mess around and screw it up! I can see this taking off in Japan, Korea and China because they are so into karaoke, but not really anywhere else. What's wrong with mp3 really?

For sound customization enthusiasts..or people simply wanting to hear specific instruments in a track..this could prove as a good alternative...its no mp3 killer though...

It probably won't ever take off properly here in the UK, but knowing you can adjust each instrument is nice.

That's about it really, it's just nice.
