WHAT IS "CDDB", AND WHAT DOES ACDB DO?
--------------------------------------

In short, the CDDB and ACDB saves you from having to manually type in artist,
disc and track title information for each audio CD you play via your Amiga's
CD Audio player.

Each time you play a CD in your Amiga's CD-ROM drive, you can access a "CD
DataBase" via the Internet (located at http://www.cddb.com) for information
about that specific disc. Recognized as the most accurate audio CD
identification service on the Web, CDDB has data on all kinds of music, even
CDs with multiple pressings. Best of all, accessing CDDB is free for your
private use.

CDDB (CD DataBase) is an information database containing artist, disc
title, track titles, and other information for digital audio compact
discs. Over time, this archive has grown to contain a substantial
collection of CD information and is continuing to grow at a rapid rate.
This database can be accessed by applications via the CDDB server hosts
that have been set up on the Internet around the world.

The CDDB data format and the CDDB servers are designed to be open, and
are used by many client applications requiring CD information. CDDB has
become the de facto standard for Internet access of compact disc
information.

ACDB (Amiga CD dataBase) retrieves this information for any CD that you
request. It then saves these files in a format (SCDP file format) that
many Amiga CD players can read.

Currently, configuration of ACDB is only via icon TOOLTYPES.
