High once again Albert,
Some DVD players will play mp threes off of a DVD, but not losless audio 
files.
However, there are some DVD players out there that will playDVD audio 
discs,but they are on the high end price wize.
But if your DVD player doesn't support audio DVDs, then your best bet is to 
stick with CDs.
