- Hi.
-
- A music mail-order place in the UK is advertising a "CD-I" listing 73,000
- CDs. Is it possible to read CD-I in the standard (I hope that's what we've
- got - our Indigo expert is on holiday) Indigo CD-Rom drive. Furthermore, is
- the data in a CD-I readable with *reasonable* effort (e.g. a quick and dirty
- programme to translate to normal text) or is it stored in some super-complex
- compressed/encrypted/whatever format.
-
- Thanks in anticipation,
-
