Yes it is.  I've never had a CD or DVD drive that could play audio 
without an audio connection of some sort.  Audio tracks are not "data" 
in the sense of computer files.  They are just a continuous stream of 
bits representing the music.  CD burner programs can read those tracks 
and copy them to a file that can be played.
