Understanding the CD

  • A CD can store up to 74 minutes of music.

  • The total amount of digital data that must be stored on a CD is:

  • 44,100 samples/channel/second x 2 bytes/sample x 2 channels x 74 minutes x 60 seconds/minute = 783,216,000 bytes

  • To fit more than 783 megabytes (MB) onto a disc only 4.8 inches (12 cm) in diameter requires that the individual bytes be very small.

  • By examining the physical construction of a CD, you can begin to understand just how small these bytes are.
