Or Kodak Portfolio CD. A script to control photoCD images and audio CD tracks with interactive. It was wonderful.

CDi was almost just an early form of Video CD.

I've a Philips PhotoCD player. Great Audio CD playback. Plays PhotoCD (Picture CDs are rubbish in comparison). One Portfolio CD demo.

Kodak killed PhotoCD with high Bureau costs.

They killed Portfolo CD by massive charge for authoring tools.

I use an external USB DVD/CD reader/writer to rip my CDs on my laptop. I only buy CDs. Thus I have a pressed archive copy. Home written CDs & DVDs are unreliable.
