The CDswitch application was designed to be a small utility that provides an easy and convenient access to the most frequent CD device operations and settings.

Would you like to have full information about contents of your CD drives without opening them? Do you wish to secure your CDs against accidental ejection and damage in consequence? Are you bothered with CDs forgotten in the drive after computer is turned off? Tired with crushing the CD drive button? So CDswitch is what you need!

Using just 16x16 pixels of your screen space CDswitch displays literally all relevant information about current state of your CD drives. CDswitch was designed in such a way that you should not change your routine mode of work with CDs, but at the same time it gives you a lot of new convinient and easy-to-use features.
