You can tag anything you want with the DNS tree - if its

aa.bb.cc.dd.cdrom.freeddb.org thats the CD data then

artwork. can give you the URL for the image
lyrics the URL for lyrics
band the URL for the bands web page

This is great for MP3 entries - although simply gluing the data onto MP3
would be a lot better in some ways 8). Like the song,c lick on it in the
CD player, hit "band" and off goes netscape
