The Rainbow Books are a collection of CD format specifications, generally written and published by the companies involved in their development, including Philips, Sony, Matsushita and JVC, among others.

A number of these specifications have been officially adopted by established standards bodies, including the ISO, IEC, and ECMA.

Red Book (1980)

  • CD-DA (Digital Audio) – originally published by Philips and Sony in 1981,[1] it was later standardized as IEC 60908:1987[2] and later IEC 60908:1999.[3]
    • CD-Text – a 1996 extension to CD-DA
    • CD-MIDI – part of the original Red Book standard
    • CD+G (plus Graphics) – an extension of the Red Book specifications used mainly for karaoke

Yellow Book (1983)

  • CD-ROM (Read-Only Memory)[4][5] – originally developed by Philips and Sony,[6] it was standardized as ISO/IEC 10149[7] in 1988 and ECMA-130[8] in 1989
    • CD-ROM XA (eXtended Architecture) – a 1991 extension of CD-ROM, developed by Philips and Sony[9]

Green Book (1986)

  • CD-i (Interactive) – standard developed and published by Phillips.[10]

Orange Book (1990)

Orange is a reference to the fact that red and yellow mix to orange. This correlates with the fact that CD-R and CD-RW are capable of audio ("Red") and data ("Yellow"); although other colors (other CD standards) that do not mix are capable of being burned onto the physical medium. Orange Book also introduced the standard for multisession writing.

  • CD-MO (Magneto-Optical)[11]
  • CD-R (Recordable) alias CD-WO (Write Once) alias CD-WORM (Write Once, Read Many) – originally developed by Sony and Philips,[12] it was partially standardized as ECMA-394.[13]
  • CD-RW (ReWritable) alias CD-E (Eraseable) – originally developed by Philips, Sony and Ricoh,[14] it was partially standardized as ECMA-395.[15]

Beige Book (1992)

White Book (1993)

The White Book refers to a standard of compact disc that stores pictures and video.

Blue Book (1995)

The Blue Book is a compact disc standard that defines the Enhanced Music CD format, which combines audio tracks and data tracks on the same disc.

Scarlet Book (1999)

Scarlet color of this book is a reference to the Red Book, which defines original CDDA.

  • SACD (Super Audio)[22] – a standard jointly developed and published by Philips and Sony

Purple Book (2000)

A standard developed by Philips and Sony in the late 1990s, with over 1 GB in capacity and recordable/re-recordable capabilities.[23]

  • DDCD (Double Density) – divided in three separate specifications:
    • DD-ROM (Double Density Read-Only)[24]
    • DD-R (Double Density Recordable)[25]
    • DD-RW (Double Density ReWritable)[26]
