Same basic setup, *.aud file that is in fact an mp3 in disguise. BUT, I have no data.txt file. I can't for the LIFE of me find anything in any file on this CD that mimics ID3 info...but I know it's on there, because the player we have shows artist/song information on it's display as the songs play...

Any thoughts?
Hi all. As a response to the quote above, my guess is you work for T.G.I. Friday's. That's how our CD player works. It loads it to the drive. I ran into this thread after looking for what a AUD file was. I dragged it from the cd onto my computer, changed the extension to mp3 and used windows media player to play the file. It worked! It's on 4 hour track. The wierd thing is that the file is still 158 megs even as an mp3. I guess the play network found out people were making their own disc' and they made it harder to make. The player itself now has settings that the disc must comply to to even download onto the system. Always tryin to spiol our fun. hmph!
