CD Audio Track (.cda)
Versions of Windows Media Player that support this file type:
• Windows Media Player 7
• Windows Media Player for Windows XP
• Windows Media Player 9 Series
CD Audio (.cda) tracks are audio files that are stored on CD media. You can
play .cda files only from a CD-ROM. As a result, a sample file cannot be
included in this article for you to play. To test a .cda file, either try to
play a different .cda file from your CD-ROM or try to play a .cda file from
a different CD-ROM. The .cda files are representations of CD audio tracks
and do not contain the actual pulse code modulation (PCM) information. You
cannot play the file if you copy a .cda file from the CD-ROM to your hard
disk.
