Abstract

A type of conventional optical storage media such as a compact disc (CD), digital versatile disc (DVD) or any type of optical-based digital storage media (10) is provided having a raised ring (25) is provided along the outer perimeter of the media. The ring (25) is approximately 1/64 to 1/8 of an inch higher than the recording surface (20) and is approximately 3/32 of an inch in width. The ring (25) is located in the blank space on the media where no recording is possible, thus the total playing time or storage space of the media is not affected.
