DESCRIPTION

Sidi is a practical audio CD player that doesn't waste any precious 
desktop space. Its simple  interface hides a rich set of features 
including the ability to download information about the CD you are 
playing from the Internet (CDDB). This way, you don't need to grab 
the CD box each time to figure out what you are playing or want to 
play. You can also use Sidi to upload new or updated CD information 
to the Internet for others to use. Sidi sports a full-featured menu 
and a handy auto-hide control window that works like the system 
volume control.


IMPORTANT NOTE (for first time users)

This application anchors its icon near the clock in the system tray 
which, by default, is located at the bottom right of your desktop. 
You may invoke the application menu by right-clicking on the icon.
