CD Track info??

Is there any way to get the CD changer to recognize artist/track names and display them instead of the standard:
DISC 05
TRACK 02

It bugs me...

The XM information comes up on the Nav and it's awesome! I just wish i could get it for my CDs.

There has to be a way to do it!

I'm sure the artist and title info is broadcast and not including on the CD.

I don't know why they didn't make it MP3 compatible. That's one of the biggest disappointments I've had so far with this car

^ Ongoing gripe that's gaining momentum as more 2008s roll out without CD-R capability like the brochures promise.

I've put some recent CDs into my Yamaha DVD player and the LED display has scrolled artist and track info. Not sure what addition it is to the Red Book Audio CD standard, but it's out there, though scarce. I wouldn't expect to see it in a car except on a truly "premium" audio system, not the baseline crap that's in the TSX.

It is called "CD TEXT" here is a wiki page about it...
