Disc structure
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of "titles," while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of "tracks."
Each title may be divided into some "chapters." For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies,
each movie may have its own title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD
VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each
title has independent content, while each chapter in the same title has continuity.
For the MP3 disc structure, see page 40.
