Windows Media Player and CD Text

I was surprised to learn recently that Windows Media Player doesn't automatically support the reading or displaying of CD text. I found this out the hard way as I was trying to prove to a client that the CD text I had encoded onto a master CD was actually readable.

There is a utility that you can download and install that will upgrade recent versions of Media Player so it displays CD text. The link is here:

Just FYI.
