CD-text , auch: Compact Disc Text

Names given are taken directly from the CD-Text on the disc.

Support for CD-Text is common, but not universal.

Toast on Mac OS X has support for CD-Text.

CD-Text can be written from the built-in editor, imported from freedb, read from media tags, or extracted from filenames.

This allows for extended graphic and text features on an audio CD such as CD+G and CD-Text.

CD support includes playing and importing music from audio CDs, optionally with CD-Text, and burning music to CDs.

The IEC 60908 however does not contain all the information for extensions that is available in the Red Book, such as the details for CD-Text, CD+G and CD+EG.

Note: Track 6 is titled "Wie ich den Farin-Urlaub-Ähnlichkeitswettbewerb gewann" (How I won the Farin Urlaub look-alike contest) in the CD-Text.

It supports AccurateRip (automatically comparing the copy with those rips made by others) and can automatically create Cue Sheets, with all gaps, track attributes, ISRC, and CD-Text included.

CDemu has the support for CD subchannels, CD-Text, ISRC，MCN and ECC/EDC, DPM/RMPS.

The final track is a deliberate misspelling of the band's name - the album's CD-Text reiterating this by listing the track as "The Story of Yo La Tango", followed by the message "Yes - it should be Tango!"

If a CD is read and ripped perfectly to FLAC files, the CUE file allows later burning of an audio CD that is identical in audio data to the original CD, including track order, pregaps, and CD-Text.

Some will try to identify the disc being ripped by looking up network services like AMG's LASSO, FreeDB, Gracenote's CDDB, GD3 [1] or MusicBrainz, or attempt text extraction if CD-Text has been stored.
