...WAV or AIFF are exact copies of the songs from the CD with no compression.

know the difference between the format of the music on a RedBook CD and one that has .WAV or AIFF fills written on it?

is a standard Red Book CD that can be played on any player.
So 'burn' is not the same as 'copy and paste', I am assuming?
Good to know!
Thanks.

No, it's complicated. Ignoring metadata and what is called "PQ subcode
data," each 16-bit audio sample is stored on a CD as two 8-bit words that
are actually encoded as 14-bit words in order to optimize the signal for
reading. When you rip a CD, the 16 bits for each audio sample are
extracted from the 28 bits on the disc,and stored as 16 bits in a new
file on your hard drive.
When you burn a recordable CD, each 16-bit audio sample is first split into
two 8-bit words then encoded as two 14-bit words that are recorded on the
disc.
So it's misleading to think of this as a copy'n'paste operation, even
though that's what it looks like at a higher level.
