I understand that the CDTV, uses some standard CD-ROM format, for storing data.

Wouldn't this mean that if there were seperate controller programs for
different machine formats, then the same CD could be used with a Mac or a PC ?

Not only would this slash production costs, but it would also guarentee any
potential software publisher that their product would sell on at least one of
these machines. It would also guarentee CBM increased sales because everyone 
would soon realise how much cheaper it is to use a CDTV than a Mac or PC with
CD-ROM drive, and still be able to run the same applications.
