Playing discs
Playing a CD
A standard compact disc (CD) can hold an entire album of
digital songs and can be played on a CD player or your
computer’s DVD-RW drive.
Use a music program or Windows Media Player on your
computer to:
•
Play music CDs
•
Create MP3 music files from your music CDs
•
Edit music track information
•
Use your music files to build a music library
For more information about playing CDs, see your online User
Guide.
Playing a DVD
A Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) is similar to a standard CD but has
greater data capacity. Because of this increased capacity,
full-length movies, several albums of music, or several
gigabytes of data can fit on a single disc. DVDs can be played
on a DVD player or your computer’s DVD-RW drive. For more
information about playing DVDs, see your online User Guide.

Some music CDs have copy protection software. You may not be able to
play these CDs on your computer.
