Do Not Update In The Background

CD JukeBox access' the CD-ROM very frequently to keep the time and track information up to date.  The problem with this is that the CD-ROM is pretty slow, and this will cause your system to bog down quite a bit.  With this option set, CD JukeBox will only update the gauges and LED's when it is the topmost window on the desktop.  This in no way affects normal execution, and is the recommended way to run the program.


Double Click

To click the mouse button twice rapidly.  Usually done to activate something.  For example double clicking in the upper left hand corner of a window (system menu icon) closes it.


System Menu

This is the system menu icon.  It allows you to do several things such as move the window, exit the program, or switch to another program.  Double clicking on this icon will exit the program.


Minimize Icon

Clicking this icon causes CD JukeBox to shrink to an icon on the desktop.  The program will continue to run normally with the only change being that the LED's and gauges will not update while in an iconic state if that option has been selected on the Options menu.

Overview

CD JukeBox is an application to play audio CD's in your computers CD-ROM.  It is not free it is shareware.  If after trying this program, you decide you like it and will continue to use it, then you must register it.  The registration cost is $10.00 (US).  Registering shareware products ensures that the shareware developers are able to continue to produce outstanding products at very reasonable prices.  This program is only $10.00 and you can try it before you buy it.  Compare CD JukeBox's price to an equivalent product at your local software store.

This program is not disabled in any way, and there is NO nag screen.  This is because I hate nag screens myself.  I am trusting in you to register the program if you use it and to delete it if you don't.  Registered users will be able to buy the next upgrade at a reduced price (just whatever it costs me to send it to you if you want it).

Thank you very much for trying CD JukeBox, for taking the time to read this, and for supporting the shareware concept by registering this product..
