Is there any way to use subtitles with mp3s?

Question

I have some .mp3 files of conversations with really bad audio quality that I am displaying on a web page using JavaScript. I was wondering if there was an elegant solution to display these mp3s with subtitles. See the page below for an example:

I came across this jquery plugin which does something similar, but using the <video> element.

Yes, you can use JW Player. It uses a Timed Text XML file to sync captions. It's free for non-commercial use and reasonably priced for commercial use.
