I have never seen audio CDs with such shambolic labelling.


CDs don't have *any* titles stored on them, most ripping software
calculates a quasi-unique ID number from the track count and
durations, then uses this to read titles from
gracenote/cddb/musicbrainz etc.

not strictly true some have cd text which code the artist album and
track name so you get that info in your car cd player

It's very rare.

Most have unique track and album numbers though
