CD-DA
—Compact Disc - Digital Audio. The typical music CD is written with this CD
format. At this time, up to 74 minutes of music can be written on a CD. The corre-
sponding standard is the Red Book.
CD-I
—Compact Disc - Interactive. This format allows the storage of different
types of data such as images, music, or video on a CD. The process is defined in the
Green Book.
CD-R
—Compact Disc - Recordable. A technology for CD-R (recordable) media.
Also refer to CD-WO, Compact Disc - Write Once, limited to just one writing.
CD-ROM
—Compact Disc - Read Only Memory. This is described in the Yellow
Book. Differing types of data that can be read by a computer such as programs,
text, image data, or sound may be stored with this CD format.
CD-ROM - Mode 1 and Mode 2
—A supplement to the CD-ROM format which pro-
vides an additional error recognition and correction function. Mode 1 is especially
used for computer data and employs a code for error correction. Mode 2 is used
with CD-ROM/ XA and CD-I with audio data and contains an error recognition code
only.
CD-ROM/ XA
—CD-ROM/ Extended Architecture. This CD format makes it possible
to store computer data and audio or video data on one track. The different types of
data are linked to each other (interleaving) so that synchronization problems can
be reduced.
CD-RW
—Compact Disc - ReWritable. A technology for CD-RW (rewritable) media.
It is not limited to just one writing, but may be erased and re-written as often as
desired.
CD-WO
—CD - Write Once. As the name implies, it is a CD that may only be written
on once. Also refer to CD-R.
Disc At Once
—Disc At Once is a method for recording of data onto a CD. With this
method, the entire CD is written in a single process. The CD-recorder first writes a
Lead-In, then the data block, and finally a Lead-Out. In contrast to Track At Once,
linking blocks are not used between the individual tracks with Disc At Once.
Enhanced Music CD, CD + and CD Extra
—An expansion of Audio or Mixed-Mode
CD consisting of two sessions. The first session corresponds to CD-DA, while the
second session consists of computer data. The process is specified in the Blue
