Compact Disc-Interactive, or CD-i, refers to both a digital optical disc data storage format and to the players that play them. The disc format was created as an extension of CDDA and CD-ROM and specified in the Green Book, co-developed by Philips and Sony, to combine audio, text, and graphics. CD-i players, most of which were manufactured by Philips or by its subsidiary Magnavox, are typically standalone boxes that connect to a standard television, much like a VCR or a game console. In addition to CD-i media, they can play audio CDs, CD+G, photo CDs, and video CDs. CD-i media included video games as well as "edutainment" and multimedia reference titles, such as interactive encyclopedias and museum tours, which were popular before personal computer ownership and internet access were widespread. The platform competed against the Sega Mega Drive and Mega-CD and the Sega Saturn.
