PC Question



On my Mac, my CD/DVD copy program has a built-in feature to access the
online CDDB database, and although that used to only be for commercial
CDs, I've been kind of blown away by how many "bootlegs" are included in
that now. I checked a few obscure CDs I had and was surprised to see those
listed now.

But, when I mentioned the CDDB to a friend who has a PC, he had no idea
what I was talking about.

In short, it'll go online and compare track numbers and times, and come up
with a list of songs. IOW, the setlist. It worked just great for a couple
of Rolling Stones studio outtakes, and an early Quicksilver concert.

Anyone know what software on the PC accesses that database?

I ask because I'd rather just include a note telling those I trade with
how to get the setlist instead of including a printed setlist.

It used to bother me when I got a CD with no info, but not anymore.

Have the rest of you checked out that CDDB resource? Pretty cool, isn't
it?
