On a CD is data written in concentric circles or a continuous spiral track?
Based on my knowledge and some research, I say spiral track. I say that since a CD drive uses a laser to read data (that's what I thought and people told me), if it went in concentric circles, then the laser would have to quickly turn off then turn on as it skipped to the next circle. To keep the data flowing to the processor (or wherever it goes, I'm just using logic), it would have to write data on a CD in a spiral track as the laser moved inward to read the data. To me, that's the most logical answer.
