no, sorry, i typed it wrong, i have 1500 cd's. so not so much, but enough. what i have been told is that i first scan a cd, and evry cd has a number. but it seems that the number of a copied cd is a bit different to the number of an orriginal cd. so if you have a number and go to search for the information on a database like freedb the database does not recognise the number, or gives the wrong match for it. i have the same trouble with easy cd da extractor whitch allso uses freedb. earlier when i was using cdex, i had more matches than with easy cdda as well.
