DVD Audio
I've read the Wikipedia page on DVD Audio and it says that the maximum it can hold 8.5 gigabytes of audio. How many minutes of music is that? The reason I'm asking is because I want to make a song longer than Robert Rich's "Somnium" album (google it. It's quite interesting, haven't heard it yet, but the story of it is interesting.) which is 7 hours long. I'm wondering how much sound I can fit onto a disc and still make it be read by some type of computer. For example, if I put a DVD audio into a DVD player, would it play just audio? Or would I have to get a special DVD Audio player? And I guess the second thing that I would have to consider is how to burn something like this. I'd have to get special software (per the Wikipedia page), but I don't know how much that would cost. Would the amount a disc can hold vary with audio quality? I'm using Audacity to make the very long music file. I don't know much about the audio file, except that it says it's 8000hz and 32-bit float. But if I reduced the number of hertz, it would play slower. So anyway, I'd like some help as to if I can even do this at all.
