Media Source Extension does not define what to do with MP3 format yet. Web Audio API spec is not going to add any MP3 decoding APIs in nearest future. The feature is needed to play back network streams and embedded sound streams.
If MP3 format will not be supported by API, there is also a possibility to wrap MP3 packets into fMP4 format (see #900)
