Some DVD-Audios also have simpler tracks on them, like CD-quaity audio at a bit higher bitrate/quality, which isn't too noticeable. The real meat and potatoes of DVD-Audio is the specific DVD-A tracks, which have true 5.1 channels of separated sound. The I-Drive can read CD-audio, that's no problem for it, and since it can read DVDs in it's DVD drive, it can read the CD tracks in the DVD audio disk. But the software for reading the true DVD-A tracks, just isn't present in the I-Drive.

I have two DVD-A disks, by Queen. They contain true DVD-A tracks and higher bitrate CD tracks. My computer with DVD-A reading software plays amazing sounding tracks, but if I try to play the DVD with simply a DVD player I get slightly better sounding CD tracks.
