Default The dictionary should not flag MP3s as MP3's

MP3s means more then 1 MP3
MP3's means "of the MP3" or belonging to the MP3

I see this error all the time in ad copy and don't want it in a dictionary.
It's incorrect grammar!

As you have indicated both could be correct. If you want the alternative,
add it to your custom dictionary - or set Word to ignore spellings of Words
with numbers and it won't flag either of them.
