What sound format is the smallest?

I mean i can go to those band sites and they can have like lots of songs loaded very quickly and the quality of the song is not too bad either…

is it in mp3? or is there some better yet smaller format of songs that flash can use?

It’s most likely mp3 that is preloaded into the site. A wav file would be a lot larger.

hmmz

maybe i know how many diff ways are there to preload a mp3 file in flash?

i am currently using an external swf with that mp3 file then load it into the main and create a sound object for that.
i dont believe it is being preloaded with the main site like this…

what is the most efficient method to do this?
