Thanks for the information. I use CDEX for ripping full commercial CD's I
have, but unfortunately all these CD's I have were a hodge-podge of songs
that I had on my computer. Oh well, It will be fun to be surprised by each
track when I rip them.
Thanks again,
Ken.

If you burned the MP3 files to an audio CD the tag information such as
title is lost. You can easily ripthe songs from the audio CD back to a
MP3 file. Give it a try, perhaps the ripping software has gotten smarter
and can recognize the individual songs. Software that rips songs from a
CD uses a bunch of information from an entire commercial CD to recognize
the CD. It looks this information, like the length of each song, to match
it to known CDs in a datavase on the Internet. The database then can
provide the tag information for each song. If the songs on the CD you
burnt were a mix from several commercial CDs, it is probably impossible.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] getting song information from home made CD's
Hi all,
I found some CD's packed away that I made a few years back. I did it by
pulling different MP3's from my computer and then burning them to the
CD's. I'd like to get these songs back on my computer because I kind of
lost them via a hard drive crash. The MP3 files had all the information,
Artist, album, title, etc. included in each file.
My question ... Is there a way of going about ripping these CD's to my
computer now that will show all of that information?
Thanks for any help,
Ken
