    MPG is just the file format, MPEG is the name of the compression mechanism. Of course, there's MPEG-1 (video), MPEG-2 (video), MPEG Layer III (audio, better known as MP3), etc.

    I don't like about Creative products because that they embed spyware right in the hardware. But it seems to support all mainstream MPEG compressions.
