There's also freedb.org, which is a replacement for cddb.com since cddb.com began imposing restrictions on usage a few years ago (see this note on freedb's site). ------------------ gonk -- Saloon Links \| Pre/Pro Comparison Chart \| 950 Review _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93
