0002
0003 Thanx for downloading K3b - The CD Kreator
0004
0005 These are the features so far:
0006  - the most userfriendly interface ever ;-)
0007    - themable
0008
0009  - Media-centric user interface:
0010    - Select the medium to use for burning instead of the device
0011    - K3b always knows about all optical devices and inserted media and adjusts the UI accordingly
0012
0013  - writing audio-cds
0014    - On-the-fly decoding of many audio formats through plugin struxture
0015      (decoding plugins for mp3, ogg vorbis, flac, wave, musepack, wma, aiff, and others)
0016    - CD-Text support
0017    - Metadata support, fill CD-Text from metadata or via Internet queries (CDDB + Musicbrainz)
0018    - little gimmick: hide the first track (so that you have to search back from the
0019      beginning of the cd to find it)
0020    - volume level normalization (only when writing with an image)
0021    - multiple sources for one track possible (merging of tracks, splitting of tracks,
0022      adding silence of arbitrary length)
0023    - integrated "preview" player
0024    - Directly add audio tracks from other CDs and let K3b take care of the rest.

0031    - creating of file-tree via drag'n'drop (as easy as it could be)
0032    - removing files and directories from data tree

0035    - renaming of files (manually or automatically for mp3-files) (for joliet and rockrigde)

0037    - multisession support (including importing old sessions and overwriting files from old sessions)
0038      Automagically multisession handling: start, continue, or finish multisession CDs and DVDs based on
