CD Capacity
A standard CD has a capacity of about 74 minutes of standard CD audio music. There are extended CDs that can actually exceed this limit and pack more than 80 minutes on a disk, but these are non-standard. Regular CD-ROM media hold about 650 MB of data, but the actual storage capacity depends on the particular CD format used.
