Ok now that we've all got 300 and 400 plus CD changers its time to revisit how we go about interfacing with the beasts. Previously my personal favorite method involved using a neat excel spread sheet that allowed me to enter in my CD names and it would spit out a file that can be converted into a CCF ready for download to the pronto. The problem with that software is that its limited to 200 CD's afterwhich you've got to edit the code to get it to work. Well after tinkering a bit I decided to move on and look at the Supernudelist software.
For more info on the software I highly suggest you visit Leo Davidson's (developer) site here
I took the time to get the software set up for my Sony CD Changer and entered in all the titles again. While this took a bit of time I was impressed with the ability to organize the CD titles anyway I wanted and not just limited to the first letter of the CD name like the Excel sheet was. For example The Beatles can be sorted under the "B's" instead on a "T" but still be displayed as "The Beatles". What also makes this software easy to use is that you organize your music under each artist's name. For example under the letter "J" I've got a link to Jesse Cook. When you press on Jesse Cook it takes you to a listing of all his CD's that I have in the changer. I really like this feature now that i've gotten used to it. All in all the software isn't the easiest thing in the world to use but its not that bad ...i guess reading the readme might have helpped but where's the fun in that If you want to see what my CCF looks like with the CD titles in it download the CCF thats on my website.
