.wav file : this is the windows extension for sound files.. they are data files in the truest sense of the word..
cds : these are technically data files with the extension .cda seen by windows... your cd player can read these files and convert the binary code into music.. a cdplayer cant do that with wav files..
a cd is a music cd..a cd-rom is a data cd.. if they are advertising .wav samples on a cd-rom, that means they are data intended for computer use , if they are advertising cd samples on a cd , they are more intended for a "sampler like" envirnment.. (ie you play the cd in a cd player and record the music into a sampler) .. be aware though , that you can use cd samples on a computer by ripping the cda file off the disc and converting to wav with a program , but thats another thread..
hope this helped...
