more quietly. You can use this utility to make listening to music
CDs more enjoyable.
When you change the CD/DVD drive to “Quiet” mode, the setting is
only valid for the current Windows® session. If you shut down,
restart, log off, or resume from hibernation, the setting will revert
back to Normal speed. The setting can also be changed by CD
burning software or other applications that can set the drive speed.
