I cannot upload music cds

I have a issue with my Dropbox account on my laptop. I cannot upload music cds from my Lenovo laptop . When I do to upload it says cda file on my laptop and the file is not able to open . It has a little alien spaceship icon next to it . I know this means it’s a alien file not supported by app . Any one can offer any suggestions? Thanks

    Hey Djss, could you clarify if you're having an issue with uploading those files or just previewing them on our website?

     

    Note that cda files are not actual files but pointers to the actual files on a CD, so it makes sense that you'd have an issue with the latter.
