multidisc
Spanning multiple CDs
Multidisc describes something spanning multiple discs—typically CDs, DVDs, or video games that require more than one disc to hold all the content: a multidisc album, the multidisc collector's edition.
The term emerged when storage limitations meant longer works had to be split across several physical media.
