+CD-XA defines another way of formatting sectors on a CD-ROM, including
+headers in the sectors that describe the type (audio, video, data) and
+some additional info (markers, resolution in case of a video or audio
+sector, file numbers, etc).
+
+The data written on a CD-XA is consistent with and can be in ISO-9660
+file system format and therefore be readable by ISO-9660 file system
+translators. But also a CD-I player can also read CD-XA discs even if
+its own `Green Book' file system only resembles ISO 9660 and isn't
+fully compatible.
