CD Importing & Playback Preferences

Select what you want Rhapsody to do when it detects an audio CD in one of your CD/DVD drives:

Do nothing	Rhapsody continues as before.
Show tracks in CD view	(Default) Opens the CD view in the Display area.
Get CD title and track info online	When a CD is inserted, Rhapsody will automatically contact its online database to determine the CD title and track information (if available). If multiple matches are found, you will have an opportunity to choose.

When importing CDs to My Library:

Select which options you want to use when Rhapsody imports CD tracks from a CD:

Format (codec):	(Default: MP3) Select a media format from the drop-down list. Imported audio tracks are saved in this file format.
