* All minidiscs contain a Table of Contents (TOC) in addition to sound signals. The TOC is similar to the table
of contents in a book and contains information, such as track numbers, track length, and character information,
that cannot be rewritten.
In addition to the TOC, minidiscs also contain a special User’s Table of Contents (UTOC) that contains track
number, track length, and character information, that can be rewritten.
