    4If you want to send me some songs, they should be already converted to SAP
    5format and should include all the information needed (author, name, date,
    6number of songs). If you're unsure about any information needed, you can
    7send me the music as well, maybe we can find the info together. If you don't
    8know how to create SAP files, send me the binary file with the INIT and PLAY
    9addresses and memory location where the song has to be loaded. See Sap.txt
    10for SAP format description.
