In short yes, but more depends on the software/app. working with the CD/DVD drive. Generally with these external or internal CD/DVD writers, you can write/burn about any type of file(s) to a disc (I haven't purchased this product yet). Key thing to remember is it depends on the software/app you use & the mode you use to write/burn a disc in that process. You can write/burn your disc in a DATA mode where as a DVD-ROM format (usually if "finalized" by your app) your wav file(s) could be opened/accessed in a Windows Explorer window & you'd likely see a file name(s) & a ".wav" extension (if your PC has that file mode on too), & it likely could play directly by Windows Media Player. If the software/app has capability mode for CD-Audio, you could then author such onto a CD-R or CD-RW (same for DATA mode). This case you wouldn't see the ".wav" extension as mentioned earlier, but those wav file(s) would be converted to play back as CD-Audio. Worth attention though is the newer "16x" going on up to "24x" or even "48x" record-able/writable discs these days even if authored in CD-Audio mode, such discs are known to not be compatible/playable everywhere, such as older "boomboxes" or component CD players, but usually are more fine in computer type drives (even if commercially replicated CD-Audio discs are playable in them).
