Copying CD audio tracks to the hard drive on your computer is really as simple as possible with Windows Media Player. Microsoft has integrated a system for importing your music by simply inserting the disc, opening up the application and telling it to rip the tracks. It has also made it an extremely quick process to gather information for each of the imported tracks by connecting to the Internet.
