Hi Eric, all,

back in 1988: the Apple CD-ROM Drive (whatever was its name) allows you to copy 
files as TYPE="aiff".

So, in  today’s Mac OS X 10.4 (all flavors), nothing new under the sky: you see 
the Compact Disk Digital Audio files as .aiff files !

Just for the archive and correct understandings.


Also, please, can everyone think at "a Computer" instead of a Linux, a Windows 
or a Macintosh machine ?

We all deals with .txt, .html, .jpg, and so on files.

We all use USB, FireWire (most of the time), Monitor (same hardware), and so on.

The only difference stands in - some parts of - the user interface: the close 
button of our windows is at right (red with a cross) or at left (a red round 
button). Worst - if I can tell that - is that under windows, if you double 
click in the Macintosh Close button location (with two left clicks), you will 
close that window.

Now all we have to worry about is the API on the Operating System (say 
openSUSE, Mac OS X or Windows).

Have a nice Sunday,

Emile

Actually, Macs can use/play WAVE files just fine.

In the old days, you had to "import" CD audio files to play them.  
These days, though, I believe they show up as ordinary AIFF files.  
Just copy those files to your folder using FolderItem methods and  
then load them into something like a MoviePlayer to play them.
