Thanks. This discussion is helping.
In fact, for my implementation, my app _will_ have internet access, so I
should scope out this CDDB/FreeDB thingie.
I believe CDDB and FreeDB use a hash of the time info for the tracks (&
maybe other stuff) to look up the CD in the database.
I wrote a program in perl to put tags on music files by extracting stuff
from the music filename, doing a cddb lookup over the Internet, showing
the user menus regarding title, album, etc., then tagging the file.
I stopped when CDDB started charging. At that point I downloaded the
wbole database and was going to put up my own (local) freedb server but
got on to other things.
I don't know if this might help you with your project, but you're
welcome to any/all of it.
