Music
Music belongs to the Mac like butter belongs to
popcorn. It goes beyond iTunes, in making
managing music with a Mac even easier. Get
access to your Music library, iPods, music CDs, to
Online Music Content and music videos.
Activate MediaCentral for Music CDs

System Preferences.

music CDs:
‣ Open “ > System Preferences...“

Listen to Music CDs and iPods
