CD-i Ready
CD-i Ready is a

format.

assume that the pregap area contains only silence, they skip it. Because of this, CD-i Ready was presented as an alternative to CD-i (which stores data in the regular indexes of the first tracks of a disc), which was more compatible with audio CD players.
The term "
Enhanced Music CD
format.
