Anything that plays for 3 days ISN'T an audio *CD* ! An audio CD is
limited to ~ 50 mins.

To paraphrase Judge Judy: Your looks, voice and mental ability will fade
eventually, but *dumb* is for life...

A CD-ROM containing mp3 (or similar) files is not an audio CD and may not
be
marketed as one.

Philips owns the rights to the *CD* trademark and requires Red Book
compliance
before it can be used. That means (among other things) that a real *CD*
may
only contain uncompressed audio. Philips has 'had words' with the likes of
Sony
when they started marketing 'computer discs' as CDs. Basically they said
"oh no
you don't".


It seems the anti-CD brigade is resorting to dirty tricks. A CDROM
containing mp3 files ain't an audio CD.
