Hi Ann; The 2 cds I have: Braille note family pc software v5.0 Braillenote pcsoftware ks 6.2
Since they both have pc software on them I would think they were for the computer. This means I never got the cd for the cd player. Terry Powers -----Original Message----- From: Ann K.

Not all Compact disks are audio CD's some are Data CD's. All Data CD's are compact Disks. However, a Data CD can contain any type of computer file: documents, etexts, various types of audio formats and program files. Indeed, you can make a CD that has an image of your whole computer if you want to do so. Many people do that. A plain audio CD is just that. I think the files are wav files, but I could be wrong. These are only audio CD's and not Data CD's.
