CD Database

If you are connected to the Internet, you can use the CD Database to display album title, artist, song names, and other information on your computer as your CD plays.

When you put an audio CD in your CD-ROM drive, the CD Audio program can query a global CDDBserver for information about the disk. If the database contains information for your disk, CD Audio downloads and displays the data.

• Access to the CDDB service is free of charge to end-users.
