A CD-ROM disc is the disc for a compact disc read-only memory drive to use. The information stored on the disc is "read" by scanning the spinning disc with a laser and looking at the reflected beam to discover the data strings encoded onto the disc. The disc found wide-spread applications in the music recording and later the computer data recording industry. Further developments produced the DVD and also allow both the CD and DVD to be written to and re-written to with relative ease, pleasing both the music lovers and the personal computer (PC) users. The disc itself has a reflective layer sandwiched between two layers of polycarbonate plastic. Particulars on the disc and the methods of encoding (which is the scheme for putting information on the disc) can be found by using the link below to the Wikipedia post on the compact disc. The reading is easy, and there are links to related terms and ideas.
