Yes.  It doesn't tripple the size of the file, but what happens is that
there are additional files that get created, in addition to the one
file, thus taking up tripple the amount of space on the card.  Your
original source file or Data file will still be the same size, but
you'll have 2 new files that will be equal in size.  The additional
files are for indexing and navigation.

Hi Pamela,

I had no idea the transfer software would triple the size of any MP3
file transferred to the Book Port.  Is it the same for other formats?
Thanks.

Cheers,
Anna
