FuturePlayer

The '''FuturePlayer '''is a combination of hardware and software to play '''MP3 songs with the CPC'''. The bitrate can be up to 128 kbps (or maybe more, it was never tried). It's the first ever MP3 player for the Amstrad CPC.
The MP3 data is directly streamed to the FuturePlayer via the printer port of the CPC. The printer port must have 8 bit, so you can use a CPC Plus or an CPC old generation with a 8 bit printer port patch. Both are supported by FutureOS, which is a prerequisite to use the software.
