- I just thought I'd throw my $.02 in to anyone who's interested. A
- friend of mine had a PhotoCD so we threw it into my NeXT CD drive and
- it just showed up in the File Viewer! Naturally there was no software
- that could read the image files, but they were all there. Anybody
- know of software for the NeXT that can read the PhotoCD format?
-
- This disc was what's called a 'single-session' disc. Apparently these
- discs should be readable by most CD drives. It's only the 'multi-
- session' discs that need a new type of drive. Don't flame me
- if I'm wrong, just kindly post a correction. This is just my un-
- educated understanding of how it all works!
