Yes, but a standard audio CD will work in an audio CD player.  ;-)

Have you ever tried to listen to the FTA stuff from a car?  It is
very fun.  I've dumped some FTA sound tracks onto audio
cassette tape.  When played from an automobile, it sounds
like a cross between new age and industrial music.  For example,
the music from Bouncing 'Ferno or NoiseTracker's intro when
played on a car's speaker system at high volume literally rocks
the vehicle.  ;-)
