Main Window Overview - Music Category
The Music category allows you to search
for various types of music files that are stored
on your PC, namely files from any locations that
you specified in the Options window.
CDS supports full metadata indexing for these file
formats: MP3 Audio (.mp3), iTunes,
OGG, Waveform Audio (.wav), and Windows

bytes), modified date and folder containing the
document): .aa, .aac, .acp, .aif, .aifc, .aiff,.au,
.cda, .cdda, .m3u,
