No CD manufacturing plant would violate any Red Book standard without
risking their license from Sony/Philips to manufacture CDs.
AFAIK, the theoretical maximum recording time under the Red Book standard is
approximately 79:58.
Although the policy varies by plant, some CD pressing plants require
waivers, extra fees and/or extra time to group similar orders (overlength
CDs require a tighter pitch angle for the cutter). What constitutes an
overlength CD varies by plant, and some don't even make that distinction.
