When I was developing CDPlayer, I spent some time trying to use the UPC as a means of identifying the CD which had been inserted. The problem is that not all CDs have the code stored on the disk and it is therefore not a guaranteed method to use. I ended up using a calculated code based on the number of tracks and the length thereof. Paul
