MP3's go like this.... you have to tag your files to get any info out of 
them. Many programs support auto-tagging through a CDDB lookup when using the 
original CD. That's how I rip all mine to my hard drive. Otherwise it's a 
laborious task of editing the tag with any applicable info such as track 
name, number, artist, album, time, etc..... Only then will you have the info 
that you want about each of your tracks.
