PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an audio decoding/playing system with low cost, low power consumption and a long battery life, which can be used for playing audio files compressed in various formats. SOLUTION: The computer system adapted to play audio files comprises a system CPU, memory, at least one drive comprising compressed audio data, and an audio controller coupled to the system CPU, memory and drive. The audio controller is adapted to read the compressed audio data from the drive, and causes the system CPU to decompress and store the compressed audio data from the drive into decompressed audio data in the memory, and retrieve the decompressed audio data from the memory for playing.
