July 24, 200817 yr Newbies I have a client that needs to put a music CD into a workstation CD player, and be able to read the music CD metadata (tracks, artist, song title, etc.) and populate that data into a Filemaker file. Then possibly "rip" the song from the CD, store as a MP3 file, then sometime in the future burn it onto another CD. Can this be done within Filemaker natively. They are a Windows house, so AppleScript is not an option. They are record producers, thus process is done for internal research, so there are no copyright issues. Any ideas or experience would be appreciated.

I imagine you could use iTunes or something similar to grab the track info and export it in a format FileMaker could read such as XML or even plain text. You might have to get into something like QuicKeys to fully automate it. Maybe Songbird would be a good starting point?
