discorules Posted October 13, 2001 Share Posted October 13, 2001 Has anyone here purchased any cds with cd text info. My kenwood cd changer, cd 406, has the ability to read this info. I haven't seen any cds with this however. Perhaps you guys know of some. My preference is Jazz, R&B or Classical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShapeShifter Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 Had forgotten about this feature, my Sony CDP-CA80es changer has it. The only one of mine that I remember having cd text is Sade's "Lovers Rock". Hummm, apparently my Denon DVM-3700 HDCD/DVD Changer doesn't have this feature. Now you've done it, I'll be up all night!

jerohm Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 Most of the new CD burner software allows you to do CD-Text. They query the internet CDDB or others for titles, but you can modifiy to your hearts content. For the cost of blanks, you TOO can have a whole collection of CD-TEXT ! I have yet to purchase a CD with it standard! It actually is pretty cool. I have a 200 CD changer and wish it came with a PC database program that would let you set up playlists. Also I wish the changers would make use a 40 second uninterrupted 'play' feature while moving to the next disc/track. This is such an obvious use of a read-ahead buffer, there must be some other reason they don't implement it!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discorules Posted October 15, 2001 Author Share Posted October 15, 2001 I'll check out that Sade cd. Is the music any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShapeShifter Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 I rate it as 5-6 out of 10. She continues her previous style of jazzy soul tunes w/sensual lyrics. It does contain heavier bass notes than her past releases. I don't prefer heavy bass myself. Here's a link to the albums info on CD Now's web page. You can listen to a sampling of the 11 tracks before deciding to buy. I find their sample tunes helpful in my decisions. http://www.cdnow.com/cgi-bin/mserver/SID=443067196/pagename=/RP/CDN/FIND/album.html/artistid=SADE/itemid=1281723 Wes ------------------ "KLIPSCH IS MUSIC"f> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobman Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 My daughters CD soundtrack from the movie Titanic has CD text. Out of the 300 cds in my Sony changer, it is the only one with text. Kind of cool to watch it scroll by!
