(It is a unique CD.)<\/p>\n<p>So you have to play Track 1, Track 2, etc. While playing them, I tried changing the track names and was surprised I could. So I editted the track names, artists, and album title. I then ejected the CD to see if iTunes would remember. It did. iTunes apparently is talking to the Finder, because the CD is now titled and all the track names are listed. Zoom in below to see the effect.<\/p>\n<p>Another pleasant surprise from Apple. That&#8217;s why the Mac is so much fun&#8230; it keeps surprising you by doing what you would want, but not necessarily expect.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/jeb\/files\/mt\/archives\/MerryChristmasTedCD.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/jeb\/files\/mt\/archives\/MerryChristmasTedCD-tm.jpg\" height=\"200\" width=\"295\" align=\"top\" border=\"1\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" alt=\"Merry Christmas from Ted\" longdesc=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"posted\">Now playing: <B>Long Tall Texan<\/B> by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=%22Lyle Lovett w Randy Newman%22\" target=\"_blank\">Lyle Lovett w Randy Newman<\/a> from the album &#8220;Merry Christmas from Ted&#8221; <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ted put together a collection of great tunes and gave it to us for Christmas.
