1k ".cda" files?
are you reading it in a regular cdrom drive, or the cd writer? whichever
you're using, try the other (if the disc wasn't closed, the writer might be
the only thing that can read it successfully).
it's a cd, so obviously the data can't change (unless you're using a
cd-writer as a reader..). perhaps your OS drivers have gotten stuffed
along the line. try using the cd in another machine, if available.
and my last suggestion: if it's insisting it is audio, you could try
"ripping" it using something like Audiograbber (for free at
http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net/)
good luck.
