I wrote a small MFC program that demonstrates reading CD Text information from an audio disc. It’s pretty well commented. I figured I’d drop it off here in case anyone needs to know how to do this process. It’s kind of simple, but like so many things, it’s complicated to figure out from the information that is given by Sony. You can download this file:

ReadCDText.zip

This is a complete program compiled on Visual Studio 2010.

In case you want some additional information you can start here:

There is also a lot of information about the process here:
