The MusicCAST server organizes the songs it stores by song, artist, album, and genre name. Although you can
store songs without providing this information, finding the songs listen is much easier if the relevant names are
stored together with the songs.
The MusicCAST server provides a variety of methods of assigning this information to songs. Where such data
exists, it assigns names obtained from its built-in Gracenote CDDB database to songs. It can also download
relevant data from the Internet and, in some cases, read it from CDs when you store them.
If the MusicCAST server cannot obtain any relevant information concerning the CDs you wish to store, or if you
wish to alter existing names to suit your needs, you can edit and create album, song, artist, and genre names.
You can also edit the assignment of artists, albums, and songs in the database, and create lists of albums and
songs for easy playback.
You can access all of the editing functions from the sub menus (press SUB MENU) available on the Song, Album,
Artists, and Genre list screens. The MusicCAST server provides the following functions:
■ Artist list (Artists) screen
■ Album list (Albums) screen (when accessed from the Genres or Artists screens)
