/**
 * An instance of the <code>AudioFileFormat</code> class describes
 * an audio file, including the file type, the file's length in bytes,
 * the length in sample frames of the audio data contained in the file,
 * and the format of the audio data.
 * <p>
 * The <code>{@link AudioSystem}</code> class includes methods for determining the format
 * of an audio file, obtaining an audio input stream from an audio file, and
 * writing an audio file from an audio input stream.
 *
 * <p>An <code>AudioFileFormat</code> object can
 * include a set of properties. A property is a pair of key and value:
 * the key is of type <code>String</code>, the associated property
 * value is an arbitrary object.
 * Properties specify additional informational
 * meta data (like a author, copyright, or file duration).
 * Properties are optional information, and file reader and file
 * writer implementations are not required to provide or
 * recognize properties.
 *
 * <p>The following table lists some common properties that should
 * be used in implementations:
 *
 * <table border=1>
 *  <tr>
 *   <th>Property key</th>
 *   <th>Value type</th>
 *   <th>Description</th>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"duration"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.lang.Long Long}</td>
 *   <td>playback duration of the file in microseconds</td>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"author"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.lang.String String}</td>
 *   <td>name of the author of this file</td>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"title"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.lang.String String}</td>
 *   <td>title of this file</td>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"copyright"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.lang.String String}</td>
 *   <td>copyright message</td>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"date"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.util.Date Date}</td>
 *   <td>date of the recording or release</td>
 *  </tr>
 *  <tr>
 *   <td>"comment"</td>
 *   <td>{@link java.lang.String String}</td>
 *   <td>an arbitrary text</td>
 *  </tr>
 * </table>
