When I load an audio CD to be added to the library, iTunes attempts to
contact the CDDB to get the track names. This causes the modem to
dial, but iTunes never waits for the modem to finish connecting. It
always tells me that CDDB was not available. When I was using iTunes
2.04 under OS 9.1, iTunes would always wait until the modem actually
finished connecting before checking CDDB. This is an inconvenience
rather than a problem, but it is frustrating when something that
worked so conveniently in earlier versions is broken in later
"improved" versions.

Jeff,
I don't know if this will be a more (or less) convenient way of
collecting the track names or not:
You might try opening iTune's General Preferences and unchecking the
box "Connect to Internet when needed." Then to look up CD info in
Gracenote's CDDB: Select the CD in the Source list, then choose
Advanced > Get CD Track Names, in the Menu.
If I am only adding an odd track or two, I find it just as easy to type
in the information myself, under Get Info, and don't even bother with
the CDDB.
