What is 3GP?
3GP is the standard used today on the 3G mobile phones. It is distinguished in two different standards; the 3GPP, which is used on GSM-based phones and have the file extension, .3gp. There is also the 3GPP2, which is for CDMA-based phones, and have the file extension .3g2. These two standards are MPEG-4 and H.263 based while having an AAC and an AMR audio.

What is MP3?
MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3, which revolutionized digital music. Derived from the audio sections of the MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video specifications, MP3 compresses CD-quality sound by a factor of roughly 10, while retaining most of the original fidelity. MP3 files are played on the computer via media player software, such as Apple's iTunes and Microsoft's Windows Media Player, as well as in countless iPods and other handheld players. While 128 Kbps (kilobits per second) is considered the norm for MP3 files, MP3s can be encoded to bit rates from 8Kbps to 320 Kbps. The higher the bit rate, the better the sound and the larger the file.
