7. Using AudioFS
AudioFS makes all tracks on audio CDs (Red Book CD/DA format discs) appear as
WAV files on Windows 95, 98, 2000 and Windows NT 4.0 systems. This allows
easy drag and drop of audio tracks to your hard drive for simple and quick audio
extraction.
Advantages of AudioFS
AudioFS has several advantages:
•
AudioFS saves time by accessing tracks from the audio CD directly as WAV
files.
•
If you are encoding to compression formats such as MP3, WMA, Real Audio,
Liquid Audio, etc., AudioFS eliminates the need for third-party software to first
extract audio tracks to your hard disk as WAV files.
•
Because a CD’s audio tracks now appear as WAV files to your operating system
and applications, AudioFS eliminates the need for hard disk storage space to
store those large WAV files.
•
AudioFS makes the creation or compilation of audio CDs very easy.
