The first test CD was Richard Strauss's Eine Alpensinfonie, and the first CD actually pressed at a factory was ABBA's The Visitors, but that disc wasn't released commercially until later.

The Nyquist rate is twice the bandwidth of the signal ... The Nyquist frequency or folding frequency is half the sampling rate and corresponds to the highest frequency which a sampled data system can reproduce without error.

The frequency response of the system is absolutely flat from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. The digital sampling-frequency is 44.1 kHz, which would theoretically give a response up to 22.05 kHz. Some margin, though, is left for high frequency cut-off filtering.

An added feature of audio CD's is that in the event of damage, the missing data can be interpolated; that is to say, the information follows a predictable pattern that allows the missing value to be guessed at. So if an audio CD is damaged by dirt or a scratch, the missing data can be averaged from a pattern with no noticeable difference to the listener. This is something the next technology in optical digital memory, CD-ROM, cannot do because an executable program's data doesn't follow a natural law. An interpolation-based guess isn't just slightly different; it's completely wrong. Because of this precision, CD-ROM drives for PC's came later and much more expensive than audio.
