Cd Track Listings

[Tomangoes]

Just been putting a few cd tracks on and IPOD, and noticed on some CDs the track listings do not appear in the transfer, therefore making lots of track 1, 2, 3 etc. (I know the artist and song can be manually added but its a ball ache job), but why is this the case?

Just curious ??

i think it depends on whether the cd database that itunes uses to get the information has the cd entered , it is ok for lots of the major labels and artists but the smaller ones dont feature sometimes

HAVE YOU TRIED WINDOWS FIRST TO GET THE TRACK LISTING UP THEN TRANSFERING TO I POD THATS WHAT I DO BUT DONT HAVE THE I POD AS MY MAIN PLAYER SO I CAN LOAD FROM WINDOWS HOPE THIS HELPS?

I've been told, but have no idea if its true, that if you fill in the details yourself (on WMP anyway) then they get uploaded for others to find when they put a copy of the disk in? If its true, then spend 5 min typing and think how many people you can save having to go 'ahh bugger, no listing'.

Anyone know for sure?

Yes that's correct. I typed a couple in and realised I'd made a mistake, when I went back the info that loaded was mine (Inclluding the mistake ). Unless of course it just pulled the info from a cached page on my PC.
