Hey, that was my first post on c.l.py. After that underwhelming response I took to answering posts :-) > Any chance there is now a way of implement such a low-level feature? On Ubuntu there is the python-cddb package http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/python/python-cddb providing DiskID.disk_id(), and retrieving CD titles etc. works fine. However, comparing the disk IDs with the serial numbers in that Access-DB of yore, they differ -- so back to square one. Older not wiser, Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
