Most of these audio classes have 347 MP3 files of ~5.783 minutes each. MP3 had a lot of patent issues but according to Wikipedia, "If the longest-running patent mentioned in the aforementioned references is taken as a measure, then the MP3 technology became patent-free in the United States on 16 April 2017 when U.S. Patent 6,009,399, held by and administered by Technicolor, expired".
