Atlantic based record label Intersound now has many titles on it's Audio Plus label that are Enhanced CD's. Enhanced CD's play in both your CD player as well as your CD-ROM drive in either MAC or PC computers. The two discs I checked out are classical music CD's that play in my CD player just like any other CD but when you put them in the computer you will get the same music as well as the histories and life stories of the composers along with an introduction to notation and musical scores with interactive staves. The Enhanced CD offers tremendous possibilities for any music lover. For educational purposes, these CD's are a learning experience that can be enjoyed at your own pace. Additional album art work, liner notes, credits, fan club info, video clips can all be included in this format. Since the demise of the vinyl LP, we all miss afforded collectable artwork in the form of the LP sleeve. As of 1994, there were five million CD-ROM drives in existence so the Enhanced CD offers a new, exciting way to use this existing technology to enjoy all kinds of music. Intersound is one of the pioneers and they already have over 200 E-CD's titles in rock, gospel, rap, country and jazz genres.
The typical retail price is $12.95 each for E-CD's and for more about Intersound as well as their catalog you can contact them at: P.O. Box 1724 on 11810 Wills Road, Roswell, GA 30077. The phone is 800-945-3059.
