Definition: Also called CD-Extra and CD-Plus. Enhanced CD is a very broad term used by the music industry for any disc that carries both audio tracks and data (Often for IBM PC). For redump purposes meanwhile, the term is used exclusively for Multisession CDs (Blue book) and Mixed mode (Yellow book) CDs where the primary content is the Audio tracks.

  • If the data tracks are the primary content of the disc. Then add disc to the DAT where said Data tracks belong to instead.
  • CD-I Ready discs while also often called Enhanced CDs are not considered such by Redump and should go under the CD-I DAT instead. Note though that there is at least one known disc mastered like a CD-I Ready one but with PC content.
