English scope note Use for any type of stamped disc. Use for BD-ROM, CD-ROM and DVD-ROM when the term refers to a type of read-only stamped disc. Specific types of stamped discs have not been separately identified as almost all commercial stamped discs use the same recording method and the distinctions are unlikely to have any impact on end users.
