Compact Disc Database

It was originally based on the now-proprietary CDDB (compact disc database).

Other services include interlibrary loans, photocopying, information and instructional services, and search capabilities to a large number of on-line and compact disc databases.

Here you will find pointers to classic studies, still pertinent, but not accessible from compact disc databases or minireviews: on developmental canalization, on cyclomorphosis, and on kidney development.

CDDB, short for Compact Disc Database, is a database for software applications to look up audio CD (compact disc) information over the Internet.

Drawing upon PC technology, the TuneBase locates a unique identification code for each CD and automatically goes online to the Compact Disc Database, which contains all the information a CD would ordinarily display on its cover, like the name of the artist, the song titles, album cover art and liner notes.
