If all i ever put on the burned CD is WAV music files, nothing else, what are the chances of it having a virus, Zero?

I'm curious, why is this the case? Our IT guy at work, i work in the music business, insists if i bring a WAV file in on a CD off of an infected computer, there is a chance the WAV file will infect our computer systems?

I've always wondered this: If i have an mp3 and convert it on my computer to a WAV file, will any viruses disappear from the WAV file once burned onto a music CD? In other words, say my computer has a virus i don't know about. I have an infected mp3, convert it to a WAV, burn it on a CD, is the virus then gone? If i was to dump the WAV onto the hard drive of another computer, would any viruses accompany the WAV file?
