CDs that show track info?!

[rnp614]

So I hate to admit it, but I bought the GTA special edition so I could use that little lock box for something...and I thought I'd check out the CD that came with it and popped it into my stereo. I was surprised to see that it pulled up a totally different little display and allowed me to browse track titles and things. How is this CD different than my others? Both my purchased CDs as well as my itunes burned ones do not show track info! I'd love to figure out why!

In iTunes go to:

Preferences
Advanced
Burning

Then select [ X ] Show Track Info

OR

Burn MP3

If you choose MP3 you can fit usually 700mb on a normal cd or w/e one you buy.

If you choose to show track info it will let you browse the tracks and so forth, but it will only hold a normal amount of songs.

Wow. So simple...

Now the real question is why dont CDs I pay for come with this feature?!!

It's not actually part of the CD standard. Its just a nice feature thats been added over the years. iTunes didn't have it till the newest version and the B6 radios (I had Bose) didn't have it

interesting...never would have guessed. I'm glad to see things are moving along!
