Audiofile® v1.2
09.21.95
Spinfree Software ©1995
NOTE: Audiofile® is a DEMO until registered. Unregistered users are limited
to only 15 entries. See "Shareware Information" for registration information.
Audiofile® is the premire music collection tracker available for any platform on any computer.
Replacing Spinfree Software's wildly successful, and critically praised compact disc tracking software
package titled "CD Tracker Pro®," Audiofile® picks up the slack and fills in the gaps and limitations
that CD Tracker Pro® failed to address.
Audiofile® has been meticulously designed to keep track of the smallest and/or largest of music
collections. Spinfree's main focus when designing interactive software packages is to merge ease
of use with an ergonomic and functional design - all wrapped up in an impressive, peerless graphic
user interface designed by our own in house professional graphic designer. You really have to
see Audiofile® to appreciate it's beautiful, uncluttered and clear graphical user interface.
The bottom line is very simple: Audiofile® delivers on it's promise. Audiofile® is the first and last
stop on the road to the frustrating, endless job of keeping a close eye on your music collection. No
matter the media - compact disc, minidisc, audio cassette, digital audio tape (DAT), digital cassette (DCC),
vinyl record (LP). There is simply no other product on the market that can compete. Don't take our
word for it - try Audiofile® for yourself!

Shareware Information
Audiofile® is shareware. Shareware means that Audiofile® is NOT free - it is your moral obligation
to pay for Audiofile® if you use it for more than 15 days. Supporting shareware is perhaps the most
influential facet of an improving, evolving product. Without your support, shareware authors around
the world will not be able to continue to produce high-quality, extremely affordable software for the
home and/or business computer user. Please support shareware!
The shareware fee for Audiofile® is a very respectable, affordable, and modest $20. Some commercial
packages out on the market that do LESS, and have LESS features, and are HARDER to use cost hundreds
of dollars. Please realize you are receiving an unparalleled product for an extremely affordable price.
With your shareware registration payment you will receive the password that will allow you to modify
Audiofile® for your own use. The password is an essential tool for the music collector who wants to
make some modifications to Audiofile® to fit his/her collection. The password allows TOTAL access to
Audiofile®. With your registration you will also receive unlimited "technical support" for the life of
the product (technical support provided by email only).
Note for registered CD Tracker Pro® users
If you are a registered CD Tracker Pro® user you can receive the password and full access to Audiofile®
for only $5. In order to qualify for this offer you must send (via email or US mail) your name, mailing
address, and email account, along with the password for CD Tracker Pro®, to the address below:
Once you are a registered user of Audiofile® you will receive instructions on how to import your
CD Tracker Pro information into Audiofile®.

Coming Soon
With subsequent releases of Audiofile®, we will be implimenting:
1. The ability to mark where the "flip-side" of a tape is (where the tracks change from side
A to side B)
2. Compatibility with Apple Remote databases (still looming in the future).
End Notes (For users who never downloaded version 1.01)
With the release of Audiofile® v1.01, CD Tracker Pro® has been discontinued. I would like to personally
thank all of our 225+ (currently) registered CD Tracker Pro® users for your outstanding support and
loyality. We will continue to support CD Tracker Pro® for as long as people use it. We do, however,
encourage all registered users to upgrade to Audiofile® for a small $5 upgrade fee. All of the CDs you have
entered in your CD Tracker Pro® database are 100% safe - they can all be imported into Audiofile® with
no loss of data. Importing is effortless and encouraged. Thanks very much - it's been an experience. I
hope to keep in touch with everyone who has made this product upgrade possible! -Jason Fried
