track: "Track" generally refers to the circular (actually spiral) track of a CD, and used in a few different contexts. The long spiral track of a standard CD is about 3.5 miles long. The track to track distance on a CD is about 1.6 microns. And, I have this stuck in my head and I'm not sure I'm right, I think you can record a maximum of 99 tracks on a CD.

See http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci211759,00.html for some of these.
