We often have customers ask about what to do if their PC or MAC doesn’t have a disc drive OR what can they tell their fans who want to buy their CD or DVD but dont have a disc drive.
Here is the answer:
For around £20 on Amazon

Computers use an online database to display CD information, the most common one is known as Gracenote, a more detailed article on Gracenote can be found here Gracenote CD Database and CD-TEXT.
Tunes and Windows Media Player DO NOT read and CD-Text embedded on the actual CD, at all! This is common for all computer CD player software.
When the CD information is displayed on a computer, the info is coming from an online database. The database is usually Gracenote (the more common) or AllMusic.
The Gracenote database serves CD information to: iTunes, WinAmp, Quintessential Media Player, and Finder (Mac OS). The AllMusic database serves CD information to: Windows Media Player, Rhapsody, and Real Music Player.
Registration on these databases must be completed by you, the client, rather than us as no extra information is added to the CD for them to work.
You can find further information on how to submit your CD on the below links.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55820219
It’s well worth remembering that on Xbox One you can also play DVD’s, especially as there are less people buying DVD players as seperate units.
The X Box one comes with an optical Drive that can be used to play not only DVD’s but also Blu-Ray.
