SonicStage Software

SonicStage software is a new jukebox application that adds a host of new features
to its predecessor, OpenMG™ Jukebox. SonicStage software lets you play and
record from audio CDs and import digital audio files while maintaining copyright
information. Continuing to take advantage of Sony's copyright-protected
ATRAC3™ format for high-quality digital audio storage, SonicStage sports a
new music visualizer, a sleek new player skin design, audio CD burning
capability, and a parametric equalizer for fine-tuning audio playback.
